What is a Dental Lab Tech?

Terrell Lawman: A lab tech is a specialized dental technician that makes a variety of dental prostheses. Such an individual would pour up impressions, make nightguards, bleaching trays, partial dentures, crowns, bridges, etc. The job you may be looking at could be a more simplified version of the above meaning that you'd be pouring and trimming models in a small lab in the office. You might polish a crown or denture after the dentist has made adjustments or you might make some bleaching trays while patients wait in the lobby. More complex dental tech duties are usually mailed or delivered to local laboratory centers for processing. Good luck!...Show more
