Vocational Career as a Dental Laboratory Technician
A dental Laboratory technician is the one who does orthodontic treatments such as fixing dentures, bridges, braces and crowns. They do this after getting an exact shape of the patient's teeth from their dentist. These dental technicians usually work under the guidance of a skillful and licensed dentist practitioner. Any person interested in such a career option should love to work with his/her hands, follow meticulous instructions to the point and have the ability to sit in a same place fro a long duration.Job DescriptionAs a dental laboratory technician, you get to work with superior and latest orthodontic equipments and materials to create false tooth or material replacements that serve as the future tooth of the particular patient.Career Options as a Dental Laboratory TechnicianAlthough you may begin a career as a dental technician without a graduation degree, it is wise if you complete your college degree and then opt for a two-year dental laboratory technician program certificate. These programs are presented at various vocational and dental schools, technical institutions and universities.Approximate Salary for Dental TechniciansSalaries may vary slightly depending upon the place of work and environment, but it ranges between $35,000 and 56,000. Those dental technicians who are self-employed and do not work under anyone get to earn around 60,000 dollars annually. The earnings are also dependent on the area or location, employment environment and the experience of the dental lab technician. Those technicians, who work in a small dental set-up and perform numerous tasks, surprisingly earn more than their other counterparts who work in big laboratories with fewer jobs to perform.Employment OpportunitiesMost of the laboratory dental technicians get employment in commercial dental set-ups or clinics, which have around 150 to 200 co-workers. Such a laboratory may have 6 to 10 dental technicians who perform various orthodontic prosthetic observations and repair works. The dental technicians may get numerous job opportunities in the following ways and places:Private dental set-ups lLarge hospitalsDental institutions,Dental manufacturing unitsAnd self-employed practicesA regular salaried job for a dental technician involves 35 to 40 hours of work every week, while those technicians who have their own private practice work for more than 40 hours. The most successful of the lot are these self-employed practitioners with their own laboratories.
