Once you get your feet wet, optimize your CEREC workflow, and build your competency working with CEREC, then take the next step. A used CEREC may not have all the bells and whistles of the latest and greatest, but it will function largely the same and yield nearly identical results at 25%-50% of the cost. Rather than expose your practice to potentially huge losses, I recommend you start off with a good used CEREC system. There is another way to break into same-day CAD/CAM dentistry. Unfortunately, in my business I meet a lot of people who find themselves in situations where things didn’t go as planned.

But what about those new to same day dentistry? In my opinion, an investment of this magnitude would require a near certain expectation that things will go well. Obviously, this would mean your practice has a long track-record of successful CAD/CAM implementation. For the very busy same-day dentistry practice, you should be able to pay off the equipment and earn a return on your investment. There has never been a more impressive or easy to use CAD/CAM system for the dental practice, but is this the right solution for you?Ī Primescan, Primemill, SpeedFire oven (zirconia), and Programat oven (e.max/hybrid ceramics) will set you back well over $160,000. Choose from a broad range of zirconia, glass, and hybrid ceramic options to mill or grind at blazing speeds. With the Primemill, the CAD/CAM dentistry world is your oyster. MORE PRECISE- new electronics, software, motors, mechanical components, and a 0.5 mm milling tool allow the Primemill to achieve superior margins and surface details in Extra Fine milling mode. 5 minutes)! There is also an improved grinding mode for high quality glass ceramics to process those in record time as well. You’ll never unwittingly use a dull bur again.įASTER- with the new Super Fast milling mode, you can mill zirconia restorations in half the time (approx. In addition, the new Primemill burs are equipped with color-coded RFID chips, which feed information to the tool status display on the unit’s 7″ touchscreen interface.

SMARTER- The Primemill’s integrated block scanner will automatically scan your block to determine the type, size, color, and zirconia enlargement factor, which saves you the trouble of inputting this information yourself. An impressive feat of engineering- the Primemill is smarter, faster, and more precise than its predecessors. Meet the Primemill: the next evolution of the MC XL Premium. A little less than one year later, here we are…

After Dentsply Sirona release the CEREC Primescan in February 2019, it was only a matter of time before an accompanying milling unit came next.
