Dental gold we buy
We buy gold crowns, bridges, inlays, onlays, posts and partial denture clasps, in yellow and white dental alloys. Pieces are accepted with or without tooth material, cement or porcelain attached: we remove it ourselves before weighing, so there is no need to do anything to them at home. A single crown is welcome, and so is a quantity kept over the years or left by a relative. Dental practices and laboratories with accumulated scrap are also welcome.
What dental gold is
Dental gold is an alloy. Gold is mixed with metals such as platinum, palladium, silver and copper to make it hard enough to bite on, and the proportions differ from one dental laboratory to another. Yellow alloys and white alloys are both used, and white alloys often contain palladium and platinum as well as gold. Dental work is not hallmarked, so the alloy cannot be read from a stamp. We test every piece on arrival to establish what it contains.
How to send it safely and discreetly
Place the pieces in a small sealed bag or a tablet pot, then in a padded envelope or small box with plain outer packaging. Nothing on the parcel needs to describe the contents. Post it by Royal Mail Special Delivery and we refund the postage, or book free insured FedEx collection from your door. After testing we confirm the offer, and once you accept we pay the same day by bank transfer. Every offer is subject to inspection.

Questions about selling dental gold
Do I need to remove the tooth from a gold crown?
No. Send the piece as it is. We remove tooth material, cement and porcelain ourselves before weighing the metal, and it is done carefully and hygienically. Please do not try to break a crown apart at home.
How do you know how much gold is in dental work?
By testing it. Dental gold is an alloy and carries no hallmark, so each piece is tested on arrival to establish its gold content and any platinum or palladium in it. The offer is based on the tested metal and its weight once anything attached has been removed.
Do you buy white or silver coloured dental metal?
Yes, where it is a precious alloy. White dental gold usually contains gold with palladium, and sometimes platinum, and is bought after testing. Some silver coloured crowns are made of base metal alloys such as cobalt chrome and contain no precious metal. Testing shows which is which, and anything we do not buy is returned free.
Can I sell a single gold crown?
Yes. There is no minimum quantity. Use the tool on this page for an instant offer, or send a photograph and we reply within one working day. One crown is posted and assessed in exactly the same way as a larger quantity.
Is the process discreet?
Yes. Parcels travel in plain packaging by Royal Mail Special Delivery, with the postage refunded, or by free insured FedEx collection. There is no obligation, and if you decline the offer the pieces are returned free and insured.
