Procera AllCeram

The Procera technique utilizes the latest in CAD-CAM and ceramic technology that produces an extremely strong restoration with consistent fit, excellent marginal adaptation, superb esthetics, and does not require unique clinical steps.

In the past, the downside of choosing an all-ceramic crown over porcelain fused-to-metal has been a loss of strength and the change in techniques required by the dentist and the laboratory. One of the reasons that many of you have expressed satisfaction in the Procera crowns is the fact that the higher strength allows you to seat them using traditional methods and materials. The bonding sequences associated with other all-ceramic systems are not necessary with Procera. You can use whatever cement you are presently using with your porcelain to metal and full cast restorations.

Besides ease of use, the other main advantages to Procera are superior esthetics and exceptional strength. With life-like translucency these restorations are very natural looking yet have enough depth and chroma to cover up even the darkest of preparations, even an amalgam core! The Procera material is a fully sintered ceramic, which means that there is no part of the glass that isn't fused within itself. The result is a ceramic that is twice as strong as any of the previous generation of all-ceramic systems.
