THE CROWN UNDER PARTIAL

We often receive cases in the lab where a crown needs to be fabricated under an existing partial. Next comes the question,
'What's the best way to get there?'
Well, there are 3 main ways - the choice is yours!

We've made a video to assist in easy and accurate crown under partial results.
Check it out!
