CEREC MC X
With CEREC MC, you can achieve 100 % precise results at an appealing price.
Whether inlays, onlays, crowns or veneers – you can create full-contour individual tooth restorations with block sizes of up to 20 mm. You will be able to work with the majority of chairside materials. With CEREC MC, you can achieve 100 % precise results at an appealing price.
The CEREC milling and grinding units and the CEREC software are optimally synchronised with one another. Grinding and milling the restoration design is extremely precise, giving the restorations smooth surfaces. Even very fine fissures are very precisely prepared and the edges are very even. Our new milling and grinding units can also dry mill, making solid zirconia restorations in a single visit possible!
Precision of up to 25 µm
“Treatment often used to take a long time. With CEREC I got a complete crown in just one visit – without a temporary or follow-up visits. I call that service!”
Meike Tramitz, patient from Gießen
The new CEREC grinding and milling machines come equipped with a device to vacuum up the mill shavings as well as new precision tools. The new machine can be used for both wet and dry processing, one straight after the other. Dry milling saves a considerable amount of time, as the restoration does not need to be dried before sintering – thus enabling the chairside procedure. And there is no difference in quality between dry and wet milling processes. The dry dust can easily be removed using a short, integrated cleaning program.

No, the unit has an integrated water tank and does not require compressed air.
Observe country-specific Regulations. Some countries have legal regulations which require regular safety inspections of electrical devices or systems by the operator.
Perform maintenance regularly. Have maintenance performed on your unit annually by trained technical personnel / a service engineer.
Observe error messages. You must observe error messages shown on the display. If the error message does not disappear even after you have performed the prompted action, contact our servicing team.
Once a month:
Do not confuse the block screw with the ball pressure screw
When operating a CEREC 3 milling unit and a CEREC MC X grinding unit in the same room, be careful not to confuse the block screw of the CEREC 3 with the ball pressure screw of the CEREC MC X.
Using the tank cap opener
If you find the tank cap, tank drain or filter insert hard to open by hand, use the tank cap opener.
Wear of the ball pressure screw
The high clamping forces cause wear of the ball pressure screw.
Replace the ball pressure screw every 500 clamping operations.
Damage to the pump and grinding drives
An excessively high ceramic content in the cooling water will damage the pump and grinding drives. Change the water regularly.
When the water is due to be changed, a message window appears on your monitor to remind you that it is time to change the water.
Preventing odours
All grinding additives contain a biologically degradable preservative. Despite this, however, odours may still develop under unfavourable conditions.
Observe the following:
Damage to surfaces
When undiluted, DENTATEC grinding additive etches plastic surfaces and can cause discolouration.
Use only DENTATEC as a grinding additive.
Water tank MC X
Foaming is not permissible. If any cleaning agents are used, this will create foam, which is not permitted. Do not use any cleaning agents.
To change the water, make sure:
✔ The unit is switched on.
✔ No matching process is running.
Then proceed as follows:
1. Pull out the water tank at the front of the unit.
2. Open the drain opening.
3. Drain the water tank.
4. Turn the tank cap counter-clockwise and take it off. If you find the tank cap hard to open by hand, use the tank cap opener.
5. Remove the filter insert from the tank and clean the filter thoroughly under running water.
6. Rinse the water tank.
7. Insert the cleaned filter with handle into the tank and press it firmly onto the base in the floor of the tank.
8. Close the drain opening.
9. Add approx. 75 ml of DENTATEC to the tank.
10. Fill the tank with water until the filter insert is completely immersed (up to the bottom edge of the cover thread, approx. 3 litres).
11. Wait briefly until the filter insert is completely soaked then add appropriate amount of water.
12. Close the water tank by tightening the tank cap (B) clockwise by hand. Do not use the tank cap opener for this.
13. Push the water tank back into the housing.
Regular replacement of instruments
Change the instruments as soon as the system prompts you to do so.
1. In the software, navigate to the system menu, and click on the "Configuration" button.
2. Click on the "Devices" button.

Risk of injury on instruments
If you put your hand in the grinding chamber, you could injure it on the instruments. Be careful not to brush against the instruments with your hand. Apply the torque wrench as shown.
6. Loosen the worn-out or defective instrument with the torque wrench and pull it out manually.
Do not grease the instrument. Insert the new instrument into the motor mount by hand. Tighten the corresponding chuck with the torque wrench until a clicking sound can be heard.
Faulty grinding results: Interchanging instruments leads to faulty grinding results.
7. Close the grinding chamber door.
8. Select the instrument(s) you have inserted on the PC monitor and click "Start". You can also select the instruments on the grinding unit (up/down arrow) and confirm with "Start".
The cooling water nozzles in the grinding chamber always must be kept free of lime and grinding dust deposits. The corresponding cooling water jet must always strike the instrument accurately.
✔ The cooling water nozzles are dirty.
Clean the nozzles with a cleaning wire and the SPRAYVIT syringe (if available).
Use only suitable instruments. Do not use any instruments from CEREC 2 or CEREC 3 units.
If an instrument breaks during the production phase, the corresponding motor travels to the change position. A dialog box which marks the side with the broken instrument with a red cross then opens. This means the instrument is broken.
To replace a defective instrument:
1. Change the defective instrument as described above.
2. Select the instrument which you have inserted.
3. Press the "Start" button.
Cleaning surfaces
Use only cleaning and care agents which have been approved by Sirona.
Do not allow liquids to run into the ventilation slots.
Disinfecting
Wipe surfaces down with a surface disinfectant (wiping disinfectant). Observe the manufacturer’s instructions regarding restrictions for use.
Protection against medicaments
Due to their high concentrations and the substances they contain, many medicaments can dissolve, etch, bleach or discolour surfaces.
Damage to the surface
Clean the surface immediately with a moist cloth and a cleaning agent.
Cleaning
Remove dirt, grime and disinfectant residue regularly using mild, commercially available cleaning agents.
Electric shock: Disconnect the power plug at the unit end before replacing the fuses.

8. Push the water tank back into the housing.
Clean the filter approximately every 12 to 15 units under running water, but at least with every water change.
You must remove water from the unit if you will not be using it for a long period of time or wish to transport it.
Make sure that:
✔ No grinding process is running.
Then proceed as follows:
