Putnam Career & Technical Center

Dental laboratory technicians create crowns, bridges, dentures, and other dental prosthetics, as well as construct, fit, or repair dentures, eyeglasses, and prosthetics.

The program is designed to prepare students to work in small or large commercial labs, private dental practices, supply houses or VA hospitals. Dental Laboratory technicians use impressions, or molds of a patient’s teeth to create crowns, bridges, dentures, and other dental appliances.
