Metal Based

Our tried-and-true metal based products offer a quality, lifelike restoration at an approachable, affordable price point.

PFM

We craft the finest PFM restorations to provide your patient with a natural warmth and esthetic. Using your alloy of choice, from noble to high noble, we use only enamel compatible porcelain. This limits the amount of occlusal wear to natural opposing dentition. Our technicians mask discoloration by blending the patient’s restoration with surrounding dentition, giving them a natural looking smile with the combined strength of PFM

PFM

Our PFMs can be used for crowns and bridges (up to fourteen units). PFMs can be manufactured to noble and high noble copings and can be used in conjunction with cast partials and implants.

Contraindicated when the patient has a metal allergy or when the size of the tooth pulp is negligibly smaller thus compromising the tooth preparation process. It is also contraindicated when the clinical tooth crown is very short and lacks the required stability including retention that is enough to provide the space for porcelain and metal.
