Calibrating parameters is my focused avenue for mastering restorative fit and relieving clinical fit issues. The CEREC system is a restorative masterful system and parameters are at the center. This video will review the logic behind parameters so you will be able to understand when a parameter tweaking is needed.

The Omnicam acquisition is a smooth machine in 4.6. I occasionally still use Optispray on long proximal contacts and shiny metal surfaces. Each version of the software since the Omnicam arrived on the market keeps getting better and better. Using the digital wash technique of scanning the occlusal surface first, then role and stream the buccal and then the lingual for a quadrant or full arch scan constructs the best models and helps avoid over-scanning.

Number one reason to upgrade to 4.6 is the improved interpretation for rendered margin clarity. Also, there is improved responsiveness to acquiring ceramics, including e.max. The camera still struggles with shiny alloys. I have never found this a problem; I apply Optistray to decrease the reflective surfaces and acquire an incredible scan quality. This video will highlight the CEREC 4.6 Omnicam scanning qualities and my secret for staying on clinical schedule.

I recommend uploading CEREC 4.6 for just the scanning and margin clarity features. However, keep 4.52 around. There are historical trends for software glitches to be present with new software versions. This videos will share several hacks I use to get through some of the 4.6 glitches.

CEREC Case Review for auto margin calculation in the CEREC 4.6 Software, it draws the margin for you! When the margins are "high and dry", auto margin drawing is spot on. This case review will highlight the CEREC software for creating an e.max onlay restoration.

This video is about becoming a happy occlusal CAD/CAM clinician. There are five principles that I apply to achieve shimstock occlusion in CEREC 4.6. It is like clockwork. When you apply them, clinical theater life becomes much more pleasant.
