The clifford test would be more accurate IMO. I'm going to have it done forany other dental work I might have to consider in the future. Loni

Yes the expense is much greater but then you have it for your lifetime. Loni

They told me that I should be retested every once and awhile to account for changes in my sensitivities or to include the latest dental materials. But I stopped going to that dentist... :-) Marc |

My dentist isn't a holistic dentist (and I'm leery of them anyway) so I will have to go with what I think will bother me the least. I did some research on the Lava Crown after you mentioned it and it said it was made with zirconium which I happened to have read about previously as being superior to a plain porcelain crown because it's sturdier.

would a regular dentist be able to do this test?

I suppose it depends on the laws in your state. Where I live, dentists cannot draw blood. Only doctors (MDs and NDs) can. Marc |

They can order it if they will be willing. My dentist told me I have to geta doc to prescribe it & then they will go ahead. Haven't done that yet. I'll see my doc in about a month & will get the script when I see him.
The clifford test they have to draw blood & then your blood is tested to a myriad of dental materials to see how you react.

I think its probably not allowed in cali. I may just have to wing it with the Lava Crown and hope for the best. I assume it would be better than Gold.

That may be a problem with the HMO I have.
