Four anterior crowns, lateral to lateral, using BioCopy to optimized the design process and streamline finishing.  This tutorial is my primary CEREC 4.0 Software approach when designing multiple teeth that cross the midline.  The refined principles of anterior aesthetics are accomplished in the BioCopy prototype and then 95% of proposal and finishing is completed before

This is the first of several tutorials in creating the e.max thin margin.  It starts with the preparation and optical impression.  With this case, we are using the Bluecam AC.  The acquisition principles are the same as the Omnicam outside of having to apply reflective medium.  Currently, I am still using both the Omnicam and Bluecam in my clinical theaters.  They are both

Check the spacer in the Design Screen by viewing underside of restoration (remove Model Box in the Analyzing tools).  This will provide assessment for spacer.  Important…check the spacer first after proposal of restoration.  If Spacer needs to be increased because of spacer shine through assessment, the full proposal will be repurposed rather than just the spacer being altered as we saw in 3.85.  In most cases, I am not seeing spacer binding issues in 4.0 full crown mills with a 60-80

CEREC 4.01 provides an incredible acquisition optical flexibility as compared to prior versions of the CEREC software.  I now have the flexibility to capture full buccal, lingual, mesial, and distal undercuts in my optical images without image distortion and fit challenges. 

There are a few remaining 4.0 hiccups we need to work around as CEREC clinicans.  This video will point out the hiccups and how to get around them.

We may choose multiple capture catalogs in the Acquisition  Phase Screen. For instance, we are able to add the opposing arch catalogs and  buccal scan to BioCopy (new name for Correlation). The catalog screen options in  4.0 are impressive.

The buccal optical bite registration is the corner  stone to occlusal mastery. Dr. Klim will review his approach to accomplishing  predictable and repeatable buccal scan success and results.
