Questions to ask when choosing the right dental lab for your practice
If you are in the market (or “just looking”) for a new dental lab, you are not alone as 46% of US dentists have switched their primary lab within the last six years. Download our cheatsheet of questions to pose to your new potential dental lab and ensure you work with the best for your needs.

Become a smart dental lab shopper
The main reasons dentists switch dental labs:
- Inconsistencies in product
- Quality diminishing
- Looking for better technology
- Competitive pricing
- Better communication with lab
We trust you’ll investigate those factors, but because, for long the work of the dental lab has remained mysterious (do you know all that happens there once you submit a case?) you may not even know what else to ask for from your dental lab.
If you feel that your current lab isn’t delivering to the level you expect, or you are just starting out and aren’t sure what to look for in a lab, we have a host of questions for you to pose to your current or prospective labs.
Including:
- Can I easily approve the design before the product is sent to me?
- How can I add shade-matching notes to a case?
- Do you use ADA-compliant materials? (Yep, this needs to be asked)
