Dental Lab

Having a dental lab on premises enables our office to provide the highest quality services and the most convenient options in care. With a full-service laboratory on the premises, we can customize a comprehensive range of dental restorations and prostheses, including inlays/onlays, veneers, crowns, bridges, partial or full dentures, and other appliances. By working hand-in-hand with our onsite dental lab, we’re able to craft restorations that blend seamlessly with your smile while achieving healthy, functional, and long-lasting results of care. And, if you happen to damage or lose a dental restoration or appliance, you can rely on our office and in-house lab for prompt replacements or repairs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What services does a dental lab provide?

+
Dental labs specialize in fabricating custom-made dental restorations and appliances according to prescriptions from dentists. These products can include crowns, bridges, veneers, dentures (both full and partial), implants, orthodontic appliances (like retainers and aligners), night guards, and surgical guides. Essentially, we create anything that a dentist needs to restore or improve a patient's smile and oral function.

What materials do you use in your lab?

+
Dental labs use a variety of materials, chosen based on the specific restoration or appliance being fabricated. Common materials include: Porcelain/Ceramics, Metals (e.g., gold, alloys), Acrylic Resins, Zirconia, Titanium, Flexible materials. We prioritize using high-quality, biocompatible materials to ensure patient safety and the longevity of the restorations.

How does the process work between the dentist and the lab?

+
The process typically starts with the dentist taking impressions or digital scans of the patient's teeth. These are sent to the dental lab along with a detailed prescription specifying the type of restoration needed, the materials to be used, and any other specific instructions. Our skilled technicians then fabricate the restoration according to the prescription. The finished product is then returned to the dentist, who will fit and adjust it for the patient. Clear communication between the dentist and the lab is crucial for ensuring a successful outcome.

How long does it take to fabricate a dental restoration?

+
The fabrication time varies depending on the complexity of the restoration. Simple restorations like single crowns may take a few days, while more complex cases like full dentures or implant-supported restorations can take longer. We strive to complete all cases efficiently while maintaining the highest quality standards. We can provide an estimated turnaround time once we receive the case from the dentist.
