Minimally invasive and aesthetic restorations – for efficient single-visit dentistry

Tetric CAD is an aesthetic composite block designed for the efficient fabrication of single-tooth restorations in just one treatment session. Its excellent polishability allows dentists to deliver long-lasting restorations to their patients in just a few steps.

Straightforward fabrication of aesthetic restorations

Well-coordinated steps for maximum performance

Tetric CAD restorations can be fabricated in just three steps, without requiring time-intensive firing: Design, grind, polish – and the restoration is ready for adhesive cementation. 

Minimally invasive preparation made easy

Even with limited space and low wall thicknesses, Tetric CAD provides reliable strength. Finely tapering margins can be created without chipping, helping to preserve precious tooth structure.

Convincing aesthetics

The pronounced chameleon effect enables natural* blending of the restoration with the surrounding tooth structure – for a harmonious and aesthetic appearance.

Balanced strength in every detail

Tetric CAD is a composite – a dental material composed of ceramic fillers and polymer resins. This combination of components ensures an optimal balance between strength, durability and ease of use.

Conservative, robust and reliable

With fast and easy handling, Tetric CAD delivers both aesthetic appeal and functional performance. Excellent polishability and the ability to perform intraoral repairs make processing Tetric CAD restorations exceptionally easy and efficient.

Versatile range of applications

One of the key benefits Tetric CAD offers users is its high stability even at low wall thicknesses. This material property enables the fabrication of durable, yet natural-looking* restorations with finely tapering margins – without chipping. The composite block covers numerous applications: 

  • Veneers
  • Inlays
  • Onlays (e.g. occlusal veneers, partial crowns)
  • Crowns

For beautiful results in just three fabrication steps

Thanks to its pronounced chameleon effect, Tetric CAD integrates seamlessly into the natural tooth structure. The material adapts ideally to the surrounding tooth shade and offers a harmonious aesthetic appearance. This allows for the fabrication of restorations that are almost indistinguishable from the natural oral environment – for consistently beautiful, aesthetic results.

Dentists can choose from two translucency levels. Tetric CAD HT, with its high translucency, is ideally suited for smaller, conservative restorations thanks to its ability to enhance the chameleon effect through increased light transmission. When a slightly higher opacity is desired, Tetric CAD MT (Medium Translucency) blocks provide a well-balanced blend of natural* light dynamics and shade stability.

Finishing

Your efficient solution for everyday practice

Due to the material's optimised properties, high-gloss polishing**, e.g. with OptraGloss® Extra Oral oder OptraGloss®, is sufficient, eliminating the need for time-consuming finishing and allowing the treatment to be completed in just one treatment session.

Tetric CAD restorations can be aesthetically enhanced directly after grinding with IPS Empress Direct Color.
