Our On-Site Dental Laboratory Enhances Patient Experience

monarch-floral 1 (1)

Modern dental technologies bring increased precision, comfort and convenience to dental treatments. Drs. Clifford Degel and Carmen Every-Degel are dedicated to providing patients with cutting-edge dental care. At our Astoria, NY, dental practice, we are able to offer patients the benefits of our advanced, on-site dental laboratory, providing same-day service for many cosmetic and restorative dentistry procedures. Our lab utilizes the very latest dental technologies to provide the most customized restorations and enhance your treatment experience.

Benefits of Our In-House Lab

monarch-floral 1

Not long ago, custom dental fabrications, such as dental crowns and other prosthetics, had to be sent out to an off-site dental laboratory. This meant an extended waiting period for patients, who were often forced to rely on less stable temporary restorations for weeks at a time. In addition, if any issues with the restoration became apparent, dentists were often unable to correct fit or appearance without sending the restoration back to the off-site lab.

Our practice takes advantage of new, digital technology that enables on-site fabrication processes. For the benefit of our patients, Astoria Dental Group uses a computerized, on-site dental lab staffed with a highly-trained technician. This arrangement allows patients to receive timely dental restorations that meet their needs. We can often provide same-day or next-day treatment, including our Teeth Tomorrow® services, which allow patients to receive a full implant-supported arch the day of or after dental implants surgery. Our doctors are also able to oversee the creation of your restoration, ensuring better aesthetics. We can make all adjustments on-site as well, helping you to achieve a better fit and more stable smile.

Advanced Technology

Our laboratory takes advantage of advanced CAD/CAM (computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing) technology, which allows for precise, digital design and fabrication. The process starts with digital x-rays and tomographic imaging, providing the Drs. Degel and Every-Degel with highly detailed 3-D images of your entire oral structure. These scans allows the doctors to design the most customized restorations possible.

During the osseointegration process, bone cells in the jaw will begin to attach directly to the surface of the titanium posts.

Our ceramics technician is often present in the treatment room to collaborate with the doctor, ensuring a seamless fabrication and shade-matching process. The technology provides for superior accuracy, fit, and aesthetics, so patients can expect a premium quality outcome.

Treatments and Restorations

Astoria Dental Group offers a full range of dental services, including many cosmetic dentistry and restorative dentistry techniques utilizing our lab technology. We are able to design and manufacture custom dentures and dental bridges entirely in our office. We also are able to fabricate natural-looking single-tooth restorations, including crowns, bridges, and inlays and onlays. We can also create custom porcelain veneers, as well as perform quick repairs and fit adjustments, as needed. Thanks to our on-site capabilities, all of these services can often be provided in a single dental appointment.
