When the case demands the most durable, most accurately fitting crown material in restorative dentistry, CIT Dental Lab delivers Full Cast Gold Crowns and Bridges for dental practices across the Eastern United States. Cast from high-purity gold alloy, these restorations offer unmatched resistance to wear, some of the tightest marginal fit achievable in crown and bridge dentistry, and a 50+ year track record of clinical longevity. For your most demanding posterior cases, your heaviest bruxers, and long-span bridges that need to last decades full cast gold remains the benchmark. Free 2-way shipping. 8-day in-lab turnaround.

Why Gold Still Matters

Gold’s properties as a restorative material are genuinely exceptional: it’s biocompatible, doesn’t corrode, wears at a rate close to natural enamel (preventing opposing tooth wear), and can be cast to marginal tolerances that minimize the marginal gap a key factor in long-term caries prevention at the crown margin. CIT casts each full gold restoration from high-purity gold alloy and hand-finishes each restoration to precise occlusal specifications. The result is a crown that seats with minimal adjustment, seals the margin effectively, and lasts.

Clinical Indications

  • Second molars with high occlusal load or documented bruxism
  • Long-span posterior bridges requiring maximum framework strength
  • Patients with limited interocclusal space where porcelain would be at fracture risk
  • Patients with a history of fracturing porcelain restorations
  • Cases where the patient accepts metal appearance in exchange for maximum longevity
  • Any case where the 50+ year longevity data of full cast gold is the deciding factor

Clinical Specifications

  • Material: High-purity gold alloy; noble metal composition
  • Marginal accuracy: Among the tightest achievable in crown and bridge fabrication

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes particularly for second molars, bruxers, and patients with demanding posterior function. While zirconia has replaced PFM in many practices, full cast gold remains the preferred material for a specific patient profile: those who need maximum longevity, those who have fractured multiple previous restorations, and those with severe bruxism where the crown must withstand decades of grinding. Many experienced restorative dentists reserve gold for exactly these cases.
Gold wears at a rate very close to natural enamel, which means it's gentle on opposing teeth. Full-contour zirconia, by contrast, can be harder than enamel and may contribute to wear on natural opposing teeth over time. For patients with heavily worn opposing dentition or natural teeth you want to protect, full cast gold is a clinically considerate material choice.
