And there are other similar materials - Lava is not the only
option. That just happened to be what the muscle-testing
("Applied Kinesiology") indicated was the most biocompatible
material for me.

But that's just for me...plus I've had all sorts of
muscle-testing results that are obviously incorrect.

But that crown is in my mouth, and no symptoms have
gotten worse (as far as I can tell) because of it.

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, probably so, but that costs a couple hundred dollars and requires
a doctor to draw your blood (I had one of those done 10 years ago)

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... :-)

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.

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

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.
