Dental Lab Technician Careers + Salary Basics

The following page shows the career & education requirements, salary and job outlook for Dental Lab Technician around the country.

What We Do

A dental lab technician is responsible for making molds or impressions of the teeth of a patient, for the purpose of helping in the creation of a dental appliance such as dentures, bridges, and crowns. They work very closely with dentists, but have very little patient contact. They do work with precise small tools, including polishers and files. They also use a range of materials, such as plastic, wax, porcelain and more, in order to create prosthetic appliances. Finally, a dental lab technician can be specialized in one of six specific disciplines: ceramics, implants, partial dentures, complete dentures, crowns and bridges, and orthodontic appliances.

Work Environment

The majority of dental lab technicians work in dental equipment and supplies manufacturing companies. Some of them work in dental offices, or even in ambulatory healthcare services. Lastly, they can be found in personal care and health stores. Usually, they work in laboratories, often quite small ones, where they are tasked with creating the various dental prosthetics and other tools as and when required.

How to Become a Dental Lab Technician

Both technical and vocational schools and community colleges offer dental lab technician education and training programs, but it can be quite difficult to find them. Generally speaking, dental labs look for high school graduates who have take courses in art, computer programming, math, and science, and then train them on the job.

Training & Certification Requirements

Dental lab technicians do not need to be certified. However, if they choose to do so anyway, particularly in a certain specialization, they would be able to set themselves apart from others. The NBC (National Board for Certification in Dental Laboratory Technology) offers the CDT (Certified Dental Technician) certification in the six areas of specialization previously mentioned. Only those who have worked in the field for at least five years or who have completed a dental lab technician accredited program are able to take the exam. There are three different examinations, which must be completed in a four year time period.
