Harness the Power of Genetics
CEREC Biogeneric has revolutionized occlusal surface design by harnessing the power that makes teeth as unique as a human fingerprint or iris – a genetic blueprint.
CEREC Biogeneric software enables dentists to create lifelike reconstructions - even while working with completely damaged occlusal surfaces. On the basis of a single intact tooth, the program extrapolates the natural morphology of that tooth to the patient’s damaged tooth structure. With a single mouse click the user is able to create crowns, veneers, inlays and onlays, as well as anatomically sized bridges with up to four units.

The easy-to-use CEREC Biogeneric software is the result of the findings of a group of researchers led by Professor Dr. Albert Mehl (Zurich University) and Professor Dr. Volker Blanz (Siegen University). The team conducted thousands of measurements of intact teeth and intense research into morphology and function. After years of painstaking research they found the formula for the genetic blueprint of morphology and occlusion. Sirona has harnessed these findings in CEREC Biogeneric.
Michael Skramstad, DDS, of Orono Dental Care in Orono, Minn., has used the Biogeneric software for several months as a beta tester. A CEREC user since 2003, Dr. Skramstad completes an average of 500 CEREC restorations per year. He believes that CEREC Biogeneric is the most significant software upgrade since the 2003 introduction of CEREC 3D. “It has really been a pleasure seeing the software progress to a point that any dentist or assistant can easily and predictably create natural restorations,” said Dr. Skramstad.
We spoke with Dr. Skramstad about his experiences with CEREC Biogeneric, the advantages of the software for both doctors and patients and how the software has greatly simplified the restoration process.
