If you like doing precision work with your hands, enjoy working independently and are interested in health care, a career as a dental laboratory technician may be for you.
The dental laboratory technician takes on significant responsibility as a member of the dental health care team. Dental lab technicians make dental prostheses — replacements for natural teeth to help people who have lost some or all of their teeth to eat, chew, talk and smile in a manner that is similar to or better than the way they did before.
The hallmarks of the qualified dental labs technician are skill in using small hand instruments, accuracy, artistic ability and attention to minute detail. The best way to become a dental lab technician is to receive formal education. Studying in a Commission on Dental Accreditation accredited program provides education that is based on the latest procedures and techniques. Dental lab technicians can begin their careers without a college degree; however, continuing education is encouraged. So if a career in health care appeals to you, but several extra years of school doesn’t then dental laboratory technology is a field you will want to explore.
A career as a dental laboratory technician offers a wide range of challenges. Since each dental patient’s specific needs are different, the duties of a dental technician are comprehensive and varied. Technicians work with a variety of materials, as well as sophisticated instruments and equipment, to create dental prostheses — replacements for damaged or missing tooth structure. Since each dental patient’s specific needs are different, the duties of a dental laboratory technician are comprehensive and varied. Although dental technicians seldom work directly with patients, except under the direction of a licensed dentist, they are valuable members of the dental care team. They work directly with dentists by following detailed written instructions and using impressions (molds) of the patient’s teeth or oral soft tissues to create:
. Full dentures for patients who are missing all of their teeth;
. Removable partial dentures or fixed bridges for patients who are missing only one or a few teeth;
. Crowns, which are caps for teeth that are designed to restore their original size and shape;
. Veneers, that enhance the aesthetics and function of the patient; and
. Orthodontic appliances and splints to help straighten and protect teeth.
Dental technicians work with a variety of materials in replacing damaged or missing tooth structure. These include waxes, plastics, precious and non-precious alloys, stainless steel, a variety of porcelains and composites or polymer glass combinations.
