We can make the big names in all types of restorations...gold, porcelain,
and all-ceramic. What matters is can we do them well and, in the highly unlikely, extremely rare, event that something
should go wrong, are we working with you to make it right? The answer is yes to both. When you're tired of the
usual and are looking for the exceptional, turn to us for your dental restoration needs.
All-Ceramic Crowns
To fabricate
our all-ceramic units we use only the highest quality materials. With those materials we can fabricate Cercontm
Zirconia, Procera® Alumina, Wol-Ceram® Alumina, and Empress® restorations.
- CercontmZirconia crowns are a combination of beauty and strength. Starting with a yttria-stabilized zirconia core that delivers durability and toughness exceeding other known aesthetic ceramics. When veneered with porcelain, these zirconia oxide frames virtually come alive with warmth and vitality in the patient's mouth. These restorations can be cemented or bonded. Please prep these with a moderate chamfer on shoulder margin.
- Procera® and Wol-Ceram®crowns are fabricated on a densely sintered alumina oxide core. They provide excellent aesthetics and are a great alternative to a PFM crown. The difference between Procera® and Wol-Ceram®cores is the way they are manufactured. The Procera® is a milled core and the Wol-Ceram®core is fabricated using a electroplating process. The Procera® must be prepped with a moderate chamfer at the margin. The Wol-Ceram®, on the other hand, can be fabricated on either a conservative feather-edge or a moderate chamfer margin.
- The Empress® system utilizes pre-shaded ceramic ingots pressed to the shape of the restoration. This leucite-reinforced ceramic gets its strength from the finely processed and then pressed procedure. These restorations can be either bonded or cemented.
We use Jensen metals exclusively for our all-metal restorations. Jensen metal is perfect for inlays, onlays, crowns and bridges. Gold continues to be the preference for many technicians due to its longevity, functional success, and biocompatibility. We offer a full range of alloys from high-noble yellow or high-noble silver to noble, providing you with a quality long-lasting result.
PFMs
We build
our PFM's using an understructure of high-quality nobel or high-nobel alloy. We then layer that understructure with
Duceramtmporcelain, a European-style porcelain that gives you natural fluorescence and opalescence. This
porcelain is perfectly matched from the opaques through the dentins and enamels to give you a natural life-like restoration
that matches the surrounding teeth. If you prefer porcelain margins, our material will match perfectly.
Golden Gate
The Golden Gate system utilizes the
original hydrothermal glass ceramic over a high yellow gold alloy which produces a warm natural-looking restoration.
This hydrothermal porcelain matches well with the yellow Degunorm alloy. It has an extremely natural appearance with
lots of opalescence. The finished product will form a smooth homogeneous surface that mimics the abrasiveness of natural
dentition. This system is perfect for single crowns and multi-unit bridges. Bridges can be produced with or without
full gold crowns or metal occlusalls. We have even produced some bridges with inlays attached on one end. Porcelain
margins are also a perfect match with this product.
We are proud to say that all of the products we manufacture are MADE IN THE U.S.A.
