In the dental industry, it’s not often discussed, but very critically important to understand, that any types of cosmetic or essential tooth replacements (including veneers, crowns, bridges, partials, dentures, and implant-retained hybrid teeth) are not typically made in the USA. Most patients are never made aware of this and may never know about it until something goes wrong. In many cases, the dental office creating your case with a third-party lab has no knowledge that the dental lab is sending these cases overseas. This is done to increase profit margins and can result in dangerous and even deadly consequences; all at the expense of patient care.
