Limited Warranty CROWN OR BRIDGE

People always ask us, “How long should this last?” In our office, we strive for perfection
and satisfaction, which is why we are happy to provide you this warranty, something few
other offices offer. In today’s technology almost everything we have learned is on the
preventive side. Instead of going to the dentist every few years for “Drill, Fill and Bill,” let’s
try preventative dentistry. You can prevent most or all disease if you spend 4 minutes in the
morning and 4 minutes in the evening brushing, flossing and doing any other special
treatments your dentist and hygienist have recommended and let your dentist or hygienist
professionally clean your teeth, check for decay, apply a fluoride treatment, or apply
sealants. Our warranties must be null and void if we don’t see you for your regular 6-month
check-ups. With 6 month check-ups, your teeth and gums are winners!
1. For a period of 5 years from the date of service, we will replace the crown or
bridge due to breakage, misfit, or decay at no cost to the patient.*
2. This warranty is null and void if the patient does not maintain his/her 6-month
continuing care cleaning appointments.
*Gold and porcelain crowns are the same for practically all cases except that porcelain can
chip. Approximately one (1) out of every 100 porcelain crowns chip and need replacement.
This will never happen with gold crowns. If your porcelain crown chips in the first five (5)
years, we will replace it free. However, if it chips after the five-year period, you will be
charged the regular fee for a new crown. This should be taken into consideration when
choosing between a porcelain or a gold crown.
