đ©ș Transforming Digital Dentistry with Speed and Precision
The CEREC SpeedFire by Dentsply Sirona is one of the fastest sintering and glazing units in digital dentistry. Developed specifically for use with chairside CAD/CAM workflows, it enables super-fast sintering of zirconia crowns, bridges, and frameworks directly after millingâin as little as 10â15 minutes. Compact yet powerful, the SpeedFire offers both sintering and glazing capabilities in a single unit, making it the perfect companion for single-visit dentistry.
đ Product Description
The CEREC SpeedFire brings a new level of speed, autonomy, and integration to chairside restorative workflows. Itâs purpose-built to meet the growing demands of same-day dentistry, providing fast and efficient sintering and glazing for zirconia restorations within a single visit.
This furnace works in perfect harmony with other CEREC componentsâlike the CEREC Primescan, CEREC Primemill, and inLab softwareâdelivering an efficient, automated system from digital impression to final seated restoration.

đŠ· What Makes It Unique?
1. Superfast Sintering
Unlike traditional furnaces that require hours to sinter zirconia, the SpeedFire sinters small zirconia crowns in as little as 10â15 minutes. It uses advanced induction heating to achieve rapid temperature increases and cooldown, making it ideal for high-demand practices.
2. Dual-Purpose Functionality
SpeedFire isnât just a sintering ovenâit also glazes lithium disilicate and zirconia restorations with precision. This allows clinicians and lab technicians to complete both sintering and esthetic finalization in one device.
3. Compact & Chairside Friendly
With its small footprint and quiet operation, SpeedFire fits seamlessly into any clinical or lab environment. Whether youâre using it in a private practice or centralized production unit, its space-saving design maximizes utility without compromise.
4. Automated Software Integration
Through the CEREC software, sintering and glazing parameters are automatically selected based on material type and restoration size. No manual programming neededâplug, scan, mill, and fire.
đ§ââïž Ideal Use Cases
- Single zirconia crowns
- Three-unit zirconia bridges (short-span)
- Implant restorations (Ti-base supported zirconia abutments)
- Lithium disilicate veneers/glazing
- High-translucency zirconia frameworks
- Chairside esthetic touch-ups
đ End-to-End Workflow
Step 1: Scan
Using intraoral scanners like the CEREC Primescan 2, capture a detailed impression of the prepared tooth or arch.
Step 2: Design
In CEREC Software, design the restoration (crown, inlay, onlay, bridge, etc.) using intuitive CAD tools.
Step 3: Mill
Mill your zirconia block in a CEREC Primemill or MC X5. For optimal results, use CEREC Zirconia blocks.
Step 4: Sinter & Glaze
Transfer the milled restoration directly into the CEREC SpeedFire:
- Select sintering program (auto-assigned via software)
- Place restoration on sintering tray
- Press start
Step 5: Finish & Seat
After sintering/glazing, polish or stain the restoration if needed and bond it into place. The entire processâfrom scan to seatâcan be completed in under 2 hours.
