Where Technology and Craftsmanship Unite

At Civic Gentle Dental Care, modern dental technology works alongside the skill and experience of our dental team to support personalised treatment. Our in-house ceramic laboratory brings digital technology and skilled craftsmanship together, allowing our dental team and ceramic technicians to work closely throughout the restoration process.

From treatment planning through to the final restoration, our team pays close attention to detail. This approach supports the creation of carefully crafted crowns, veneers, and other dental restorations designed to suit each patient’s individual needs.

The Benefits of an In-House Laboratory

Having an in-house ceramic laboratory allows our dental and technical teams to work closely together throughout the restoration process, supporting clear communication, attention to detail, and customised restorations designed around each patient’s individual treatment needs.

Close Collaboration

Our dentists and ceramic technicians work closely together throughout the restoration process, allowing them to communicate directly, discuss individual cases, and review details as needed. This collaboration supports a well-coordinated approach to creating customised restorations for each patient.

Rigorous Quality Control

Every stage of the restoration process is carefully overseen by our dental and laboratory teams. Working closely together allows us to assess details such as fit, shade, and contour throughout the process, supporting restorations that meet our clinical standards and are tailored to each patient’s needs.

A Truly Bespoke Result

Our in-house ceramic laboratory supports a high level of customisation, allowing our dental team and ceramic technicians to carefully consider the shape, shade, and details of each restoration. From subtle colour variations to natural-looking textures, every detail is considered to help create restorations that complement your existing teeth and overall smile.

Greater Efficiency

Having an in-house ceramic laboratory allows our dental and technical teams to work closely together throughout the restoration process, helping to streamline communication and coordination. This integrated approach can support an efficient treatment process while maintaining careful attention to the quality and detail of each restoration.

A Team of Dedicated Expert Ceramists

Our in-house ceramic laboratory brings together skilled dental technicians with an understanding of dental anatomy, materials, and aesthetics. They work closely with our dentists throughout the restoration process to carefully consider the details of each case.

With a focus on customised dental restorations, our ceramic technicians pay close attention to factors such as shape, shade, and contour. This collaborative approach helps create restorations that complement each patient’s individual smile.

The Art of Creating a Restoration: A Glimpse Inside

Creating a dental restoration involves a combination of digital technology, careful planning, and skilled craftsmanship. From the initial digital design through to the finished restoration, each stage is carefully considered by our dental and laboratory teams.

1. The Digital Blueprint

The process begins with detailed digital scans and information from your dentist. These provide the foundation for planning and designing a restoration that is suited to your individual treatment needs.

2. The Foundation

Using CAD/CAM technology, the restoration is digitally designed and milled from a suitable ceramic material. This provides a carefully shaped foundation ready for the next stage of the process.

3. The Hand-Layered Artistry

Our ceramic technicians carefully refine the restoration, considering factors such as shade, shape, and translucency. Where appropriate, porcelain can be layered and adjusted to create details that complement the appearance of the surrounding teeth.

4. The Final Glaze and Polish

The restoration is then finished, glazed, and polished to achieve a smooth surface and natural-looking appearance. Once complete, it is ready for your dentist to assess and fit as part of your treatment.
