Is gold really dead or making a comeback 2025?

Are zirconia and biomimetic dentistry sounding the final bell for precious metal restorations?

Is there still a place for gold in modern practice—and when is it actually the best option?

From skyrocketing costs and lost lab skills, to emerging alternatives like milled cobalt chrome, this episode covers everything you wish dental school taught about gold.

They even dive into clever tricks for temporizing gold and discuss the surprising lab workaround that may save your patient money—without compromising function.
