My molar needed a crown after a large filling failed. Back home I would have waited 3 weeks for the lab. Here they took digital impressions on Monday and I had my permanent zirconia crown by Thursday. The whole trip was 5 days and I was back in DC for the weekend.
Three unit bridge on lower left side, zirconia. My Houston dentist wanted $4,800 for this bridge. I paid $1,100 here. The work was completed in 4 days. The fit is excellent and I had a follow-up X-ray with my Houston dentist at 6 months who confirmed everything looked perfect.
Five zirconia crowns replacing old PFM crowns that were showing metal at the margins. All five done in 4 days including color matching consultation. Atlanta quote was $7,500. I paid $1,900. The precision of the fit is as good as any work I have had done in the US.
I was considering composite bonding in Dallas to save money. My coordinator here explained the longevity difference and the price gap between bonding at $6,000 and e.max veneers at $3,400 here. This was an easy decision. The craftsmanship of the ceramist is extraordinary.
Eight veneers and the result is beautiful. I gave 4 stars because my first set of temporaries was slightly too opaque and we had to go back to the lab. They resolved it quickly and the final result is exactly what I wanted. That kind of responsiveness to my concerns is actually what earned the 4 stars rather than 3.
I whitened first at home for 3 weeks to establish my target shade as the coordinator recommended. They matched the veneers exactly. Six upper e.max veneers completed in 6 days. Trip was almost a vacation. Stayed at a great hotel 10 minutes from the clinic, saw the country for a day.
10 upper veneers. I had the temporaries for two days before approving the finals. They let me request three adjustments to the shape before bonding. That level of attention to detail is what you pay $20,000 for in Chicago. I paid $4,300. Impossible to distinguish from natural teeth.
As someone in entertainment in LA I was terrified to trust my smile to anyone outside of my Beverly Hills dentist. The digital smile design preview completely changed my mind. I approved every detail before they touched my teeth. The in-house ceramist is genuinely exceptional. My LA colleagues think I went to the best cosmetic dentist in the city.
8 e.max veneers. The ceramist spent an entire day on color matching and adjustments before the final bonding. My Upper East Side cosmetic dentist quoted $18,400 for the same 8 veneers. I paid $3,400. Two years later they look identical to the day they were placed. Not one chip, not one shade change.
I came for a single implant and ended up having two crowns replaced while I was here because the price difference was so significant. Total treatment cost $2,200. Seattle quotes for the same work totaled $8,900. The only reason I give 4 stars instead of 5 is the hotel I chose was a bit far from the clinic.
