Dental Lab Technician

Dental Lab Technician

Duties and responsibilities: Dental technicians seldom work directly with patients, except under the direction of a licensed dentist; they are valuable members of the dental team. They work directly with the dentists by following detailed written instructions and using impressions (molds) of the patients 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, and crowns which are caps for teeth that are designed to restore their original size and shape.

Education: The minimum education requirements for dental laboratory technicians are a high school diploma or equivalent. Students interested in this field work should focus their high school studies and math, science information technology, wood shop and art.

Salary: $22,275 - $52,438



Education:  I would like to be this because you get to make molds for the person who has problems with their teeth and can make actual teeth for the people that don’t have any.
