Full Cast

Lauterbach offers full-cast crowns, bridges, inlays, and onlays that exhibit wonderful contours and exquisite attention to detail. Thanks to their clinical success, biocompatibility, and ease of use, these restorations have withstood the test of time and still remain a popular choice. Through the use of CAD/CAM technology, our technicians are able to fabricate these industry staples with superior fit and finish than before. They are durable but remain gentle on opposing dentition, which makes these an excellent option for bruxers.

Features:

  • Biocompatible
  • Gentle on opposing dentition
  • Ideal for the posterior region
  • Lifetime durability
