# Dental Gold Experts
> Dental Gold Experts is a U.S.-based dental gold buying service built exclusively for dental practices, dental laboratories, and dental professionals. We are not a generalist refiner or pawn shop — dental gold is all we do. We pay based on true melt-and-assay results with same-day or 24-hour payment and fully insured prepaid shipping on every shipment. Texas-based (Houston) with mobile service throughout Central Texas and nationwide mail-in service across all 50 states.

## About

Founded by Blake Plummer, a 15+ year precious metals expert, Dental Gold Experts was created because the dental gold refining industry is full of vague offers, slow payments, and opaque processes. Every batch receives a written assay report showing gross weight, metal percentages (gold, palladium, platinum, silver), spot prices used, and the complete payment calculation — so dental practices can verify every number independently. Payment is issued same-day or within 24 hours of assay completion, by check, PayPal, or direct deposit.

## What We Buy

Dental Gold Experts accepts all gold-bearing dental restorations and scrap, including:

- Full-cast gold crowns and caps (all karats, all fabrication eras)
- Partial gold crowns
- Gold bridges and multi-unit restorations
- Porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) crowns with precious metal substructure
- White or silver-colored crowns containing palladium or platinum
- Gold inlays and onlays
- Dental scrap, filings, sprues, and casting waste
- Mixed alloy batches from dental labs and practices

Note: White or silver dental restorations are frequently undervalued by non-specialist buyers. They may contain significant palladium or platinum. Only a true melt-and-assay determines their accurate value.

### The 7-Step Assay Process (Summary)

1. Receipt and intake logging — shipment opened, contents recorded, batch number assigned
2. Initial weighing — batch weighed to nearest tenth of a gram on a calibrated scale
3. Melting into a homogeneous sample — all material melted together so every piece contributes proportionally
4. Chemical assay — precise percentage of each precious metal determined via fire assay or XRF analysis
5. Report preparation — written report generated with gross weight, metal percentages, and spot prices used
6. Offer issued — dentist receives written offer with full calculation breakdown
7. Payment — issued same-day or within 24 hours of accepted offer via check, PayPal, or direct deposit
