The Artisan Advantage

Why we maintain an in-house master ceramist.

In standard commercial dentistry, clinical dental impressions are dispatched across town or overseas to anonymous factory technicians. At Lumina, our master ceramist David Lindqvist meets you personally. He sits in the treatment room, observes how afternoon sunlight plays across your incisors, and hand-mixes porcelain powders to match your eye color and skin undertones.
