What is a DMLS Crown?

DMLS stands for Direct Metal Laser Sintering, a revolutionary technology that utilizes a high-powered laser to fuse metal powder into a solid structure layer by layer. This process allows for the creation of highly accurate and intricate dental crowns, tailored to fit each patient’s unique dental anatomy.

Benefits of DMLS Crowns

1. Exceptional Precision and Fit: The laser sintering process ensures that DMLS crowns are crafted with unparalleled precision. This results in a perfect fit, reducing the need for adjustments and ensuring optimal comfort for the patient.
2. Durability and Strength: Made from high-quality metal alloys, DMLS crowns are incredibly strong and durable. They can withstand the daily wear and tear of chewing and speaking, making them a long-lasting solution for dental restorations.
3. Biocompatibility: The materials used in DMLS crowns are biocompatible, minimizing the risk of allergic reactions or adverse effects. This makes them a safe choice for patients with sensitivities to certain metals.
4. Superior Aesthetics: DMLS crowns can be coated with porcelain or other materials to match the color and appearance of natural teeth. This ensures that the restoration not only functions well but also looks great, blending seamlessly with the rest of your smile.
5. Efficient Production: The digital design and manufacturing process of DMLS crowns allow for quicker turnaround times. This means you can receive your custom crown faster, reducing the number of visits to the dentist.
