OVER 45 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE
We started as a family business in California and now that we’ve grown, we still have the same values that keep dentists coming back to our lab year after year.

Meet Lonnie Frangadakis, CDT
President of California Dental Arts
California Dental Arts has earned the trust of thousands of dentists by treating each one like our only client. We back up our superior service with a keen attention to detail, expert craftsmanship and top-of-the-line solutions from our Certified Dental Technicians (CDTs), many with advanced credentials. In fact, we have the most CDTs of any Bay Area dental lab.
Experienced in all disciplines of dental technology, we’re always working to create the best possible result for you and your patients, so you can take your business where you want it to go.
Here’s what our clients have to say about us:
“ZirFit restorations we get from California Dental Arts fit better. That means less chair time for our patients. And that’s what we want from a lab.”
“I have been using California Dental Arts for the past 14 years for all my cosmetic cases. They stand by their work unconditionally and will do whatever it takes to achieve the perfect crown. Their crowns are truly life altering for my patients. I will continue to use California Dental Arts for all my cases as long as I am still practicing.”
“For 15 years, California Dental Arts has given me superlative quality and service while making the distance between us virtually invisible. I’ve enjoyed their consistent precision and professionalism.”
