Prestige
Dental Studio goes beyond the basic standards for dental products,
design and services.
There
is always a balance required between using a proven technology
and innovation. Our senior technician,
Daniel Lambert, has over
25 years of experience as a dental technician. He has the background,
experience and flexibility to examine, assess and test new
production methodologies prior to implementing them on customer
cases.
As
a result, Prestige has developed a good in-house balance between
innovation and proven technology.
While
we meet all industry standards for porcelain and gold manufacturing,
we have also
made a commitment to innovation
and excellence,
including:

Procera Coping, A Strong Alternative To Metal [link to website]
More
and more patients are asking for constructions made of materials
not containing metal or other alloys. We are pleased
to offer
two choices made from a bio-compatible material.
Lab Procedures
At Prestige, we have invested in the most modern equipment: When your models
arrive at Prestige Dental Studio, the die of the prepared tooth is scanned
in the Procera Scanner, which transfers the information to a PC data file.
The final design enhancements of the coping (desired shape, overall thickness,
precise angle of emergence, and any final margin refinements) are defined.
This digital information is then transmitted via modem to the Procera production
facility.
At this facility, a die model is
precision milled by a computer-controlled milling machine. High-purity
aluminum oxide powder is thinly pressed using very high pressure
to produce the dense coping’s inside surface. The outside
of the coping is then milled to the desired design of the coping
before the final high temperature (1,550 C) sintering process.
The finished coping is then sent
back to Prestige Dental Studio. Here, porcelain is stacked and
baked on, to produce the final restoration.
