Dental laboratories manufacture or customize a variety of products to assist in the provision of oral health care by a licensed dentist.
These products include crowns, bridges, dentures and other dental products.
Dental lab technicians follow a prescription from a licensed dentist when manufacturing these items, which include prosthetic devices (such as denture teeth and implants) and therapeutic devices (such as orthodontic devices).
Some of the most common restorations manufactured include crowns, bridges, dentures, and dental implants. Dental implants are one of the most advanced dental technologies in the field of dentistry.
