I wish I had found out about Dr. Field earlier, but I am glad I found him now!! My daughter first went to Dr. Field for a routine cleaning/checkup and he found a cavity that was there that another dr. had missed. That same dr. who missed the cavity in my daughter, had put a gold crown on one of my teeth--to put a gold crown on they grind away part of your original tooth and it is a big piece of gold in your mouth. When I went to Dr. Field, I was educated about newer technology--it is a partial crown out of porcelin (white like your teeth) and does not require grinding away part of your original tooth--keeps as much integrity of the tooth as possible. This is done utilizing computer CAD/CAM technology where they draw a picture of the space where the filling has been removed and a little robot carves (out of a porcelin block) an exact piece to go in where the filling was. This is the newest technology--I do not know why you would go any other route. As to expense, teeth cleanings are about the same, partial crowns are more expensive--maybe 2-3 times as much as the old gold crowns, but you only get one set of teeth--worth it to invest in yourself!! My entire family and friends now see Dr. Field.
