What Does a Dental Lab Do?

While the main role of a dental lab is relatively straightforward, the day-to-day inner workings of a lab are complex and often require a great deal of skill, artistry, and technique on behalf of the lab technician. The purpose of a modern dental lab is to produce the tangible products (i.e. crowns, bridges, and restoration teeth) that are needed by the dentist in order to restore a patient’s oral health and smile. 

As a dentist, the in-house dental lab at Dr. Heath A. Lampee’s Teeth in 24 practice is primarily used to fabricate custom restorations for full mouth dental implants. Each and every patient’s oral architecture is unique, which is why a unique protocol must be taken in order to produce perfect, stunning results and a beautiful smile for every patient that walks through doors. 

With our state-of-the-art full mouth dental implant lab, accomplishing this goal is easier, faster, and more streamlined than ever before.

The Benefits of an In-House Dental Laboratory

In many instances, communication between a dental practice and an off-site dental laboratory end up causing treatment delays for the patient. During the dental implant process, from a patient’s first consultation to the diagnosis, surgery, and placement of the final restoration, communication between Dr. Lampee and the dental lab is ever-present. 

In order to produce beautiful, functional restorations that perfectly suit the needs of each unique patient, a variety of information must be shared and communicated between the dentist and the dental lab on a daily basis. Having our lab services in-house all under one roof allows us to carry out an entire implant restoration quickly, seamlessly, and with near perfect results, every single time.

I am extremely grateful for Dr. Lampee and his staff. Facing the prospect of having one’s teeth removed and replaced can be quite scary, but Dr. Lampee guided me through the process with care and ease. His staff treated me with care and respect while remaining professional. They provided me with a safe space during a difficult time. Dr. Lampee truly cares about his patients and about improving their quality of life and it shows in every aspect of his practice. I would recommend them 1000 times. Thank you Dr. Lampee for having such a positive impact on my life and health.

Gracious, friendly and professional response from front desk to dental technician to Dr. Lampee. Very professional assessment of options for my somewhat complex issues, based on outstanding technology and engaged and complete explanations from Dr. Lampee. Worthy of 6 stars!

Dr. Lampee and his staff were amazing! I suffer from a high level of dental anxiety and needed some dental work done badly. Dr. Lampee and his staff put me at ease immediately and never made me feel silly or like I was overreacting. I used oral sedation for a root canal, crown and fillings. Dr. Lampee completed all the work in one appointment and it was the best dentist experience of my life. 100% recommend!
