the administration phase of the software,
you will have an additional step in the Mill
Phase called “Select Color.” After clicking
that prompt, there are two options that
need to be set. First, enter the tooth color
and thickness of the incisal enamel in the
software (Fig. 5). This will automatically
position the restoration within the block
to achieve the color indicated. The next
step allows adjustment of the thickness of
the incisal enamel (Fig. 6). The beauty of
this step is that it allows adjustment of the
enamel without losing the desired color
set in the previous step. After adjusting
the color parameters accordingly, the final
proposal of the restoration is visible within
the block that mimics the desired interac-
tion between dentin and enamel (Fig. 7).
CEREC Blocs C will come in one block
size and 11 different shades. The capabili-
ties of this block from an esthetic point
of view are impressive and it will be a
wonderful newmaterial in our arsenal.
