Step-by-step: Glazing CEREC Blocs, CEREC Blocs C, CEREC Blocs PC and CEREC Blocs C PC in the CEREC SpeedFire
Step 1: Remove the sprue, polish, try-in/adjustments
Afterwards, be sure to clean your restoration thoroughly using soap and water, then blot dry with a clean, lint-free towel. Your restoration must be free of dust and debris before glaze is applied
Step 2: Fill your restoration with CEREC SpeedPaste and put it on a glaze support pin
Make sure to completely fill your restoration with CEREC SpeedPaste, in order to avoid the intrusion of impurities, which might negatively impact the fit.
Use the right glaze support pin for your indication:
Single tooth restorations: Glaze support single unit
Bridges: Glaze support multi unit
Step 3: Glaze your restoration with CEREC SpeedGlaze or stain it with Celtra Universal Glaze
Shake the container well immediately before use until the beads can be heard inside the bottle
Keep the can as upright as possible during the spraying process
Apply an even coat of spray from all sides in short bursts and from a distance of 10 cm
Step 4: Place the restoration in your CEREC SpeedFire furnace and start the process"Glazing" using the tablet; afterwards let your restoration cool down
The occlusal surfaces of the restoration point upwards
A maximum of 3 single-tooth restorations or a 3-unit bridge can be sintered in one go
Attention: Wait until the timer has expired to 0.
Important: Do not touch the restoration immediately, because it is extremely hot!
Please note: The fan is not available for this material
After cooling, check the glaze and add a second layer of glaze if necessary
Step-by-step: Sintering CEREC Zirconia, CEREC Zirconia meso, inCoris TZI and inCoris TZI in the CEREC SpeedFire
Step 1: Separate the restoration from the block and remove dust
A straight handpiece with a diamond wheel or a straight carbide bur can be used for this
Remove residual milling dust first with pressurized air, then with a large sable brush (only necessary for dry milled restorations)
Step 2: Place your restoration upside down inside the furnace chamber
Max. 3 single-tooth restorations or one 3-unit bridge can be sintered in one process
Step 3: Select and start the process "Sintering" on the display; nach Prozess Restauration zum Abkühlen auf Lüfter stellen
For wet milled restorations: Select process "Drying & Sintering" instead
Important: Wait until the clock timer has run down to 0
Danger: Avoid touching the restoration at this time as it is extremely hot!
Use tweezers to place the restoration for at least 2 minutes on the fan-area until cool to the touch
Step 4: Try-in/adjustments
Control and adjust in the following order:
Internal fit, proximal contacts
Occlusal contacts
Dynamic contacts
Only use microfine diamonds (diamond grain size ≤40 µm) when making post-sintering adjustments
Clean the restoration (alcohol-based is recommended) and dry
Step 5: Surface finishing
General: following the sintering process the surface of zirconia restorations must always be finished.
Polishing: use normal polishing systems for zirconia such as Meisinger. Complete all required steps for the polishing system being used.
For glazing please see next steps.

CEREC SpeedPaste
CEREC SpeedPaste is a ceramic firing paste and is used to fix restorations on the restoration holder for glaze firing (ATTENTION! Do not use for sintering!). The paste can be very easily removed after firing, e.g. using compressed air. Sandblasting, scraping, or steaming off restorations following the burning process is not necessary. Thanks to the very good consistency of the material, the restorations can be quickly and effortlessly fixed to the restoration holder.
CEREC SpeedPaste can be used with:
CEREC Blocs, CEREC Blocs C, CEREC Blocs PC, CEREC Blocs C PC (Dentsply Sirona)
The CEREC SpeedGlaze spray is used for glazing fully-anatomical restorations. The spray applies a layer of glass powder to the sprayed surface, which is then melted on in the subsequent firing phase. Thanks to the orange color of the spray, you can easily and quickly achieve a uniform result.
CEREC SpeedGlaze can be used with:
CEREC Blocs, CEREC Blocs C, CEREC Blocs PC, CEREC Blocs C PC
CEREC Zirconia, CEREC Zirconia meso, inCoris TZI, inCoris TZI C

Previously, radio modules were the recommended connection for sending processing jobs from the CEREC AC to MC XL-family units. As the CEREC Primemill’s firmware updates are typically much larger than those for the MC XL units, completing these updates with a radio module takes considerably longer than with a WiFi solution. CEREC Primemill also offers additional features such as remote login which require a connection to the practice (or lab) network.
For those reasons, we recommend not to use radio modules with CEREC Primemill.
Please find all details in the document CEREC Network Operation Recommendations. This document covers all CEREC network-based components.
The factory-calibrated thermal element is constructed for the durability of the furnace. Therefore an exchange is not expected in the first years of operation.
The calibration tool is designed for the fine adjustment of the temperature measurement and is only necessary when the thermo-element in the field has to be changed.
It lasts at least 2000 cycles.
There is no risk. The device has been inspected and sufficiently shielded, so there is no risk of emission.
Connectivity and orders
Yes.
No, this is not possible.
No.
Yes.
We recommend a direct connection of the SpeedFire to your network via the Ethernet connection via LAN cable. In addition, the HW modules can also be used as a radio connection. If these options are not available, the SpeedFire can also be connected via Wi-Fi. For this you also need a USB-Wi-Fi adapter (REF: 6578012). In the case of a Wi-Fi connection, the ad-hoc mode is not permitted, the connection must be made via an access point.
No.
Yes, the furnace in general can be controlled by several Acs, yet for doing so the CEREC SW 4.4.1 or higher or the respective Premium version are required.
Yes, with Software inLab CAM 19.0 and higher it is now possible to control CEREC SpeedFire. All restorations fitting into the oven regarding their clinical dimensions may be transferred to CEREC Speedfire by inLab CAM 19.0.
As soon as the order has been successfully forwarded to the furnace, the SW and the
CEREC AC can be switched off or a new case can be started.
