Crown and bridge
From a single crown to full mouth rehabilitation, made to be virtually indistinguishable from the patient's natural teeth. Ceramic work of an exceptionally high standard is what the laboratory is known for.
What we make
All-ceramic crowns, crowns in porcelain bonded to precious metal, and resin-bonded Maryland bridges, including bridges with a single pontic and a single wing. For full mouth rehabilitation we combine implant, crown and bridge work in one planned case.
Every restoration is made with detailed shade and character matching, working from digital photographs of the patient's natural teeth. The aim is work that sits beside natural teeth without being noticed.
Choosing the material
We advise on the material that gives the aesthetic result you want while keeping the strength the case needs: porcelain bonded to precious metal, pressable disilicate glass or milled zirconia. We also advise on the ideal preparation for posterior all-ceramic restorations.
The hardest match
One of the cases we specialise in is a single crowned front tooth beside natural teeth with an unusual or complex shade and character. Our in-house shade matching and patient consultation service exists for cases like this.

Questions dentists ask
Which material should I choose?
It depends on the aesthetic result you need and the strength the case requires. We advise on porcelain bonded to precious metal, pressable disilicate glass and milled zirconia before you begin.
Can you match one crowned front tooth to natural teeth beside it?
Yes. Matching natural teeth with complex shade and character is one of our specialities, and we offer an in-house shade matching and patient consultation service for these cases.
Do you make Maryland bridges?
Yes. Resin-bonded Maryland bridges appear in our gallery, including a lower bridge in porcelain bonded to non-precious metal and a bridge with one pontic and one wing.
How should I send photographs?
Email them to admin@visiondentalab.com with the patient's name in the subject line. We encourage photographs for every case.
