Re: Study of Diamond Crown by the International College of Prosthodontists

HI Chris, I am really not sure enough about the cements and what exactly they are composed of. But at least they are not used as the "main" material and that is what the dentists I spoke to were concerned about with overuse of composite/plastic.

One dentist I emailed who is trained in oral toxicology recommends cerec above all else, but will use composite if the patients wishes (which he recommends heliomolar). Now I know the big criticism of heliomolar is that it contains fluoride, but so do many others and considering what else so many contain, perhaps flouride in that amount is not the worst of them and to him this has caused the least reactions in patients that he has observed.

One dentist here (holistic) only uses cerec. That is it. Nothing else as far as I am aware. If it does require a lot of drilling to place this stuff in the teeth, I have to ask why so many bio dentists would then use it as their main material? We have another bunch of general dentsits here who do the same thing. Their advert talks about cerec, that's IT. I mean is it all money oriented with this stuff? Or is it really as good as they say? I dont know, but I do keep hearing about how much healthy tooth structure is able to be saved with cerec, so maybe it is better than older porcelains.
