clinicians 
Our services are for dentists and dental clinicians throughout the UK. St Albans Dental Laboratory have been Medical Device Directive registered for many years. One of its many requirements is a policy of checks. We interpreted this to mean that all work is checked at each and every stage of production and this has resulted in an even higher level of consistency in the production of crown and bridge work. 
Alongside the ongoing sequence of checks we also carry out a final inspection where the following are verified: 
 
1. The Model corresponds to the work ticket. 
2. The specifications have been met as requested. 
3. The prosthesis fits the model. 
4. The shade is correct. 
5. The contact points are appropriate. 
6. The occlusion is correct. 
7. The aesthetics meet our requirements. 
8. The glaze is satisfactory. 
9. Work will be returned, before, or at the latest, on the day required. 
 
We only use the best quality materials and technology in the production of crowns and bridges: 
 
Cercon Degudent - a ceramic veneering material specifically for veneering, providing a simple yet highly effective colour matching. 
 
Degudent Compartis - unique technology delivering esthetic and functional dental restorations for all indications. This system provides completely individualised prosthetics with unbeatable precision. 
 
Signum ceramis - a glass ceramic composite specifically developed for the requirements of metal free restorations. Highly durable even if high levels of stress are encountered. 
 
Spectroshade - colour matching technology of the highest grade. It recognises colours as they really are and the measured spectral detail is not influenced by the lighting or any other environmental condition affecting vision. 
 
Heraceram - sets new standards in porcelain. With perfect and natural results. With HeraCeram, you dictate and make the choice. Whether it is standard or high end layering.
