IPS Empress 2
IPS Empress 2 is one of the newest additions to
Island Dental Laboratory's product line. Our Crown and Bridge technicians
have completed courses on how to manufacture IPS Empress restorations,
enabling us to produce quality restorations for you and your patient.
IPS Empress 2 is metal-free, and provides excellent esthetics as well
as strength. It is also very versatile, as it can be used for crowns,
bridges, and veneers. Inquire today about IPS Empress 2. For more information,

here. |

IPS Eris
Island Dental Laboratory is pleased to offer the
latest addition to the Empress family of fixed restorations. IPS Eris
is convenient to the dentist because it is conventionally cemented.
It is an advantage to the patient because of the beautiful esthetics
it offers. IPS Eris is the ultimate in metal free esthetics. The material
gives a life-like appearance with the natural translucency, brightness,
and shades, and also offers strength and durability, making it and excellent
choice for fixed restorations. To find out more about the cementing
procedures and other aspects of this product, click

Metal ceramic/IPS
d.sign
On the metal sub-structure (precious or non-precious) single or long
span bridge, layers of porcelain are applied. IPS d.sign has a unique
combination of fluorapatite and leucite crystals that imitate the optical
properties of natural teeth, dispersing light throughout the material
in a manner similar to natural dentition. Our technician can now go
beyond the limitations of traditional porcelains and achieve the ultimate
combination of bright colors and high translucency without adding conventional
apacifying agents. The addition to this strikingly esthetic glass, ceramic
offers enhanced stability of shade and true-to-nature flourescence.
As well, IPS d.sign offers superior wear characteristics similar to
enamel. Click here to visit the manufacturer's
website. |
|
Sculpture/Fibrekor |
 |
| Another option in metal-free restorations
is Sculpture/Fibrekor. It offers strength, esthetics, durability, and
versatility. Sculpture/Fibrekor restorations look and feel completely
natural in the patient's mouth. They are not sensitive to hot and cold,
not bulky or dark, hard or brittle. They are very resistant to stains,
and are shock absorbing to reduce the likelihood of breakage. Sculpture/Fibrekor
can be used for crowns, bridges, veneers, caps, and fillings. This ensures
that all of a patient's restorations can match. Island Dental Laboratory
is a manufacturer of Sculpture/Fibrekor restorations. Click here to visit
the manufacturer's website. |
Lucitone 199
Island Dental Laboratory uses Lucitone 199 denture
resin for all of our standard and premium acrylic dentures. Its strength
provides the ultimate protection against denture breakage and emergencies.
Lucitone 199 denture resin also provides the look of healthy, attractive
tissue, good translucency, and excellent vein stimulation. Please inquire
at Island Dental Laboratory for more information on Lucitone 199. Click
here to visit the manufacturer's
website. |

Wironium Cast Metal Partials
Island Dental Laboratory manufactures quality cast
partials at a reasonable price. Our cast dentures can be processed with
acrylic or Valplast, giving patients more of a choice. We also manufacture
cast palates for complete dentures, providing extra strength for those
patients who need it. All of the metal for our cast partials comes from
Bego, Canada. For more information, click
here, or contact Island Dental Laboratory. |

Valplast®
The Aesthetic Flexible Partial
|
 |
| Valplast is one of the products
that Island Dental Laboratory specializes in manufacturing. Valplast partials
offer excellent quality and esthetics at an affordable price to patients.
The material provides strength and function without bulkiness to metal
clasping - giving your patient the confidence to smile, knowing they have
an appliance that looks natural. Most patients prefer Valplast to conventional
partials because of the increased comfort, fit, and esthetics. Also, Valplast
is an excellent alternative to more costly fixed restorations. For more
information on Valplast, click here.

Ortho Appliances
We are pleased to inform you that we offer a selection

teeth. We manufacture Hawley retainers, space maintainers, bonded lingual
retainers, and more. For information on our product selection and pricing,

to assist you.

TMJ Appliances
Patients with TMJ problems need an appliance that
is both comfortable and durable. At Island Dental Laboratory, we use
a dual processing technique to manufacture bruxism appliances. The result
is a hard/soft appliance that provides strength on the outside, yet
has a soft liner to make the appliance easier to wear. The dual processing
technique makes a much stronger appliance than a regular cold cure.
This provides optimal results for both the dentist and the patient,
as there will be less breakage, and therefore less remaking. For additional
information on our TMJ appliances, please call us at our toll-free number. |

Valplast - the esthetic flexible partial. At Island

Valplast partials. These partials offer superior strength and esthetics,
which gives your patient the best of both worlds. Valplast material
