ABOUT US

We are a small, boutique dental lab that focuses on fabricating surgical guides and full arch implant-supported teeth for dental offices throughout the country. We are owned by two local dental specialists who have their dental practice under the same roof. This practice is our lab's largest client and these two doctors work in the lab as well. Our small team consists of hard working, artistic, and motivated individuals. We are known as a high-end dental lab that puts out some of the best quality prosthetics and surgical guides. We don't advertise, but continue to see growth, a testament to what we are doing for our clients. We are fun, easy-going people who enjoy our chance to build little pieces of art that go into patients' mouths and change their lives. We often have our clients (dentists) sharing photos with us of their patients with the teeth we have made. This is the most fulfilling part of the whole thing.

ROLES/RESPONSIBILITIES

We are small, so there are always a myriad of tasks that are shared among everyone on the team (pouring stone models, cleaning, etc.). But, here is a list of some of the main tasks you would be doing: Perform detailed staining and glazing of monolithic zirconia restorations to achieve natural esthetics and patient-specific characterization. Evaluate restorations for proper contour, anatomy, occlusion, shade accuracy, and overall function prior to delivery. Make adjustments to restorations as needed to meet esthetic and functional expectations. Maintain consistency and efficiency while managing multiple cases and production deadlines. Conduct quality control checks throughout the fabrication process to ensure accuracy and excellence. Maintain a clean, organized, and compliant laboratory work environment. Follow established laboratory workflows, protocols, and quality standards. Here are the qualities we feel make someone a good fit for the team and the job: Artistic eye

• You have to be good at seeing something in your mind and getting your hands to make it look that way. We pride ourselves in the quality of art that goes into our teeth. This is therefore a must!! Attention to detail
• We are building tiny sculptures with finicky materials. You have to have patience to follow critical steps through the process to not only get a beautiful end result, but also have it function well in the mouth without breaking. If you are sloppy with your art, this isn't the job for you. Team player
• We are all easy-going people who like to talk and laugh.

We would prefer someone who fits this dynamic. We aren't looking for overly shy or overly strong personalities. Just someone who is in the middle and wants to be a part of a team. While your day-to-day will include a lot of alone time, we also want someone who is comfortable socializing. And while socializing is fun, we need someone able to buckle down, put on headphones and get a lot of work done. Teachable

• We have a very particular work flow and need someone who can pick up on things quickly.

We also need you to listen to our critiques as we get you closer and closer to what we are needing from you because we are not like other labs.

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE

We are looking for someone who has experience as a dental ceramist with a focus on implant-supported restorations, but we are also looking for an ARTIST. Having previous experience is a plus, but a strong understanding of full-arch workflows and a grasp of the bigger picture will help you stand out. If you do not have an exceptional attention to detail, commitment to quality, and hand skills that will make your art shine, this may not be the lab for you. If you feel you are a good fit for this type of work, let's get together and talk. We can answer any questions you have and show you some examples of the stuff we do. Sometimes it's nice to see it yourself.
