The Procera® System

The Procera® System has been expanded to include single or multiple unit coping designs fabricated in ceramic materials. Customized titanium and ceramic implant abutments are manufactured using the virtual reality CAD/CAM software program for the system. They can also be created by scanning a pattern and produced in either a ceramic or titanium material. Ceramic laminates that meet the esthetic requirements of the patient is another treatment modality available using the Procera® System. Besides these restorative options, the Procera® System has grown to include dental products or devices that go beyond these single or multiple unit bridge restorations for natural teeth or implants. Using the Procera® System, The “Teeth in a Hour” treatment option was developed. This option permits management of the edentulous arch. It involves treatment planning, component and instrumentation development, and the construction of the prosthesis using the CAD/CAM approach. Five to six implants are placed at the surgery appointment followed by insertion of the finished prosthesis in a single appointment of less than one hour. The one-piece machined titanium bridge is another Procera development. One-piece all-ceramic fixed partial denture is on the horizon. The potential for the Procera® System are limitless.
