Guaranteed Fit

The Lava™ restoration fits. Or we pay.

The only 3D video capture system in dentistry today is now the only digital impression system to guarantee restoration fit.

The industry-first Lava C.O.S. Guaranteed Fit means that any approved Lava™ restoration made using the Lava C.O.S. process will fit… or 3M ESPE will compensate the dentist and the lab (see details below). That’s how certain we are about the accuracy and precision of Lava C.O.S. restorations.

The guarantee applies to new‚ certified Lava C.O.S. dentists and trained‚ certified laboratories. It is good for one year from the doctor’s Lava C.O.S. certification date and applies to all Lava restorations that are approved indications for the Lava C.O.S.

Read more about the guarantee below and hear what other dentists are saying about the amazing benefits of the Lava C.O.S. (See contract for full details).

You’ll be impressed. We guarantee it.
