Dr. Habib Zarifeh, Head of Oral Surgery at CMC Hospital Beirut (Johns Hopkins International affiliated), ensures every technology deployed here is operated to its full clinical potential.

What is CAD CAM Dentistry?

01

Computer-Aided Design & Manufacture

CAD CAM stands for Computer-Aided Design and Computer-Aided Manufacture. In dentistry, this technology allows our clinical team to digitally scan a prepared tooth, design the restoration on-screen in three dimensions, and then mill it from a precision ceramic block — all within the same appointment window.

The result is a restoration that fits with a level of accuracy that traditional impression-and-laboratory workflows simply cannot match. No temporary crowns waiting days for a lab. No repeat appointments. No compromise.

The CEREC Milling Unit

The CEREC milling unit at Ferrari Dental Clinic is one of the most precise dental manufacturing instruments available in Lebanon. Using diamond-tipped burs and fully automated CNC movements, it sculpts the restoration from a single ceramic block — reproducing every digital contour to sub-millimetre accuracy.

  • Feldspathic porcelain, lithium disilicate (Emax) and zirconia blocks available
  • Milling time from 8 to 20 minutes per restoration
  • Colour-matched to your natural dentition from a catalogue of over 25 shades
  • No temporary restoration required for most cases

Ceramic Inlays & Onlays

Inlays and onlays are partial ceramic restorations used when a tooth is too damaged for a simple filling but does not require a full crown. They are the most conservative and clinically superior option for mid-size cavities and cracked cusps.

At Ferrari Dental Clinic, every inlay and onlay is designed and milled using our in-house CAD CAM system — achieving a fit precision that hand-fabricated restorations cannot replicate. The ceramic material bonds chemically to the tooth structure, reinforcing it rather than simply filling a void.

  • Inlay: restoration placed within the cusp tips
  • Onlay: restoration extends over one or more cusps
  • No metal, no amalgam — pure ceramic aesthetics
  • Completed in a single appointment with CEREC

Ultra-Thin Ceramic Precision

Modern CAD CAM ceramics allow restorations of extraordinary thinness — from as little as 0.3 mm for veneers to highly precise inlay margins that seal against bacterial microleakage. This degree of accuracy is unachievable with conventional plaster-model laboratory workflows.

The thin ceramic piece shown here illustrates the level of translucency and biomimetic light behaviour that our milled restorations achieve — virtually indistinguishable from natural enamel under all lighting conditions.

  • Restoration margins accurate to ±20 microns
  • Translucency and optical depth matching natural enamel
  • No metal substructure — true all-ceramic aesthetics
  • Bonded with dual-cure resin cement for permanent retention

Zirconia Crowns & Bridges

Full-coverage crowns and multi-unit bridges are milled from monolithic zirconia or Emax lithium disilicate — the two strongest all-ceramic materials available in modern restorative dentistry. With zero metal substructure, these restorations deliver the most natural appearance possible while maintaining exceptional long-term durability.

Emax crowns milled in-house at Ferrari Dental Clinic benefit from Dr. Habib Zarifeh's direct involvement in shade selection and occlusal design — the same expertise he applies to every veneer and cosmetic restoration in the clinic.

  • Emax lithium disilicate — superior translucency for anterior teeth
  • Zirconia — maximum strength for posterior load-bearing zones
  • Same-day or next-day delivery in most cases
  • Direct integration with our digital X-ray and CBCT system
