Metal-Free Dentistry in Escondido, CA

EVERYTHING ABOUT METAL-FREE DENTISTRY

Natural look. Strong results. No metal.

Prefer restorations that blend in? We use tooth-colored composites and all-ceramic/zirconia options for fillings, crowns, and more—planned clearly and placed comfortably so your smile looks and feels like you.

How the treatment works

Fillings are usually completed in one visit. Crowns and bridges typically take two visits (prep + temporaries, then final placement). We’ll review photos, shade guides, and costs up front, then keep you comfortable at every step.

Good fit if you want to:

Avoid visible metal and dark lines near the gumline

Choose materials suitable for metal sensitivities

Match repairs to your natural tooth color and translucency

What we use

  • Composite fillings for small to medium repairs—bonded and shade-matched.
  • All-ceramic or zirconia crowns/bridges when strength and esthetics matter.
  • Tooth-colored bonding to refine edges or close small gaps.

Replacing old metal fillings

We only recommend replacement when it’s clinically appropriate (cracked, leaking, or esthetic concerns). If you choose replacement, we use isolation and high-volume suction and can stage treatment over time.

Durability & care

Modern ceramics and composites are built to last when case selection is right. Keep routine cleanings, avoid chewing ice, and wear a night guard if you clench or grind to protect your work.

Costs & financing

We’ll review a clear estimate before treatment. Our procedures are often elective; flexible financing is available through CareCredit® and LendingClub®.

Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions? We’ve got answers. If you can not find the answer you're looking for please reach out to us, we will gladly provide you with the answers you need.

Are metal-free crowns as strong?

Are the materials BPA-free?

We can discuss BPA-free or low-BPA options where available and choose what fits your needs.

We typically recommend a prioritized plan to balance comfort, function, and budget.

Many medically necessary restorations are covered. We’ll provide a clear estimate and offer CareCredit® and LendingClub®.
