Dental Laboratories

Quality dental labs

“Why do dental restorations cost what they cost?” Great question from a patient recently. One part of the cost of course is the facility, materials, and experience of the doctor. But a major factor in cost is the fee paid to the dental laboratory for the restoration or prosthesis. In tight economic times, there has been a push to use offshore discount labs and materials. There is great risk with this type of thinking. As one of my labs stated recently in a newsletter, “We are making replacement parts for the human body. This is not something that can be taken lightly”. I could not agree more. We are committed to using laboratories that follow our philosophy of care and excellence.
