1 The initial CEREC 1 unit was used to deliver a ceramic inlay for the first time in 1985. The CEREC System was initially developed in the early 1980s specifically to deliver ceramic restorations by a dentist during a single appointment. The CEREC System (Sirona Dental Systems) is one such digital system that applies CAD/CAM technology for restorative dentistry that has undergone a number of recent innovations. A number of digital systems have been introduced that offer dentists the opportunity to deliver restorative treatment without the need for impressions and stone casts. Computer Assisted Design/Computer Assisted Machining (CAD/CAM) is a technological innovation for dentistry that has significantly affected materials and processes in both the dental laboratory and clinic. An integral part of the CEREC AC, the CEREC Bluecam makes digital impression capture easy and efficient.Advances in technology continually challenge dentists to re-evaluate their current techniques for patient treatment. Users can capture a half-arch digital impression in 40 seconds and a full-arch digital impression in just 2 minutes. The speed of capture with the CEREC Bluecam is exceptional. The optics used in the camera have been optimized for a higher depth of field and accuracy, and they have been coupled with increased computing power, providing crisp, detailed impressions for precise 3D digital models. CEREC Bluecam senses when the area is in focus and automatically captures the digital impression without user intervention, providing easier and shorter acquisition times.ĬEREC Bluecam offers precision thanks to a uniform field of illumination. Users can simply position the lens over the desired area and let CEREC Bluecam do the rest. In addition, the CEREC Bluecam acquires images automatically. According to the manufacturer, the CEREC Bluecam captures more detail than any other camera on the market. Sirona’s CEREC Bluecam provides the user with several advantages.

The CEREC Bluecam is a handheld acquisition camera that uses a highly visible blue-light LED (light emitting diode) to capture digital impressions.
