CAD/CAM is an acronym that stands for computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing.
Dr. Gharib has been specially trained to use CAD/CAM technology to create long-lasting, aesthetic restorations. Advancements in materials and technology have provided many options for excellent restorations that can look great, provide superior strength compared to other restorations, and reduce the need for multiple visits to the office.
Once the 3D impression scan has been created, Dr. Gharib will then create the final restoration using an on-site milling machine with CAD/CAM technology.The final product is made from a tooth-colored ceramic material that provides outstanding durability, often exceeding that of many restorations produced in external labs. Depending on the specific procedures, you might receive your dental restoration on the same day or the next, rather than waiting one to two weeks for a lab-created restoration.
