NAICS 339116 — Bridges, custom made in dental laboratories

Reasoning:

Directly covers the production of custom-made dental bridges in dental laboratories, matching the described activity and its material-intensive manufacturing processes.

Dental bridges are prosthetic devices used in healthcare to replace missing teeth. They are typically fabricated from primary materials such as metal alloys (e.g., gold, nickel‑chromium) or high‑strength ceramics like zirconia, often combined with po…

Description

Dental bridges are prosthetic devices used in healthcare to replace missing teeth. They are typically fabricated from primary materials such as metal alloys (e.g., gold, nickel‑chromium) or high‑strength ceramics like zirconia, often combined with porcelain for aesthetic layering. Manufacturing involves processes such as metal casting or ceramic milling, sintering, and porcelain veneering to shape and finish the bridge components before they are installed in a patient’s mouth.
