Full Job Description

We are seeking an experienced and highly skilled Dental Laboratory Technician/Ceramist to join our growing dental laboratory!

The ideal candidate must have at least three years of professional experience in a similar dental laboratory position and a strong understanding of high-volume lab production. We are looking for someone with an excellent eye for aesthetics who can consistently produce beautiful, natural-looking restorations while working efficiently in a fast-paced environment.

This position is best suited for an experienced technician who understands how to balance aesthetics, function, quality, consistency, and turnaround time. Digital dental design experience is strongly preferred.

Key Responsibilities

Fabricate high-quality crowns, bridges, veneers, implant restorations, and full-arch prosthetics.
Perform ceramic layering, staining, glazing, contouring, polishing, and final finishing.
Create natural-looking restorations with proper shade, translucency, surface texture, anatomy, and characterization.
Work on highly aesthetic anterior and cosmetic cases requiring close attention to symmetry, proportion, and smile design.
Review case prescriptions, photographs, digital scans, models, and doctor instructions before beginning production.
Understand and apply proper dental anatomy, morphology, occlusion, contacts, margins, emergence profiles, and functional requirements.
Make necessary adjustments to contacts, contours, margins, occlusion, shade, and overall fit.
Conduct a thorough quality-control review before each case is finalized and delivered.
Identify potential technical or clinical concerns and communicate them to laboratory leadership or the prescribing doctor.
Collaborate closely with dentists, designers, laboratory leadership, and other technicians to achieve the desired clinical and aesthetic outcome.
Communicate clearly when additional photographs, scans, shade information, or case clarification are needed.
Maintain consistent quality while meeting demanding production schedules and turnaround times.
Prioritize cases according to due dates, urgency, complexity, and production requirements.
Complete remakes, adjustments, and troubleshooting when necessary.
Follow established laboratory workflows, quality-control standards, infection-control procedures, and safety requirements.
Maintain a clean, organized, and efficient workstation.
Assist in other areas of laboratory production when needed.

Required Qualifications and Experience

A minimum of three years of professional experience as a dental laboratory technician, dental ceramist, or in a closely related dental laboratory position is required.
Experience working in a fast-paced, high-volume dental laboratory environment is required.
Strong hands-on experience producing high-quality aesthetic dental restorations.
Experience with crowns, bridges, veneers, implant restorations, or full-arch prosthetics.
Strong ceramic layering, staining, glazing, contouring, polishing, and finishing skills.
Excellent understanding of dental anatomy, morphology, occlusion, contacts, margins, emergence profiles, and shade matching.
Ability to interpret dental prescriptions, photographs, digital scans, models, and case instructions accurately.
Ability to maintain exceptional attention to detail while meeting production deadlines.
Ability to manage multiple cases and changing priorities without sacrificing quality.
Strong organizational, time-management, and problem-solving skills.
Ability to work independently while collaborating effectively with a team.
Reliable, accountable, and committed to completing cases accurately and on time.
Strong communication skills and a professional attitude.
Willingness to accept feedback and continuously improve technical skills and efficiency.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience working on high-end cosmetic and anterior aesthetic cases.
Experience with implant-supported restorations and full-arch cases.
Digital dental design experience.
Familiarity with exocad, 3Shape, or similar dental CAD software.
Understanding of digital dental workflows, including intraoral scans, model-less cases, digital wax-ups, and smile design.
Experience working with zirconia, lithium disilicate, porcelain, and other modern restorative materials.
Experience with custom staining, internal characterization, and advanced shade matching.
Experience communicating directly with dentists regarding complex or highly aesthetic cases.
Russian-speaking ability is preferred but not required.
Formal dental technology education, certification, or advanced ceramist training is a plus.

Ideal Candidate

The ideal candidate combines strong technical knowledge with a natural eye for dental aesthetics. You understand what makes a restoration look realistic and can consistently reproduce natural anatomy, shade, translucency, texture, and characterization.

You must also be production-minded and comfortable working in a high-volume laboratory. This role requires someone who can move efficiently, stay organized, meet deadlines, and maintain consistent quality across a large number of cases.

We are looking for someone who takes ownership of their work, catches potential issues before a case reaches the doctor, communicates proactively, and is committed to producing excellent results. The right candidate will be dependable, motivated, receptive to feedback, and interested in growing with the laboratory long term.

What We Offer

Competitive compensation based on experience, technical ability, and demonstrated skill level.
Overtime opportunities based on laboratory volume and production needs.
Consistent case volume.
Opportunities to work on complex aesthetic, cosmetic, implant, and full-arch cases.
Modern laboratory environment with digital technology and advanced workflows.
Opportunities for professional growth and increased responsibility.
Collaborative and fast-paced team environment.
Full-time, long-term opportunity for the right candidate.

Schedule

This is a full-time position. Candidates must be comfortable working in a fast-paced production environment, managing a high volume of cases, and consistently meeting case deadlines.

Overtime opportunities are available and may include additional weekday hours or occasional weekend hours, depending on laboratory volume, production schedules, and urgent case needs.

How to Apply

Please submit your résumé and a brief description of your dental laboratory experience.

Applicants must have a minimum of three years of relevant professional experience to be considered.

If available, please include photographs or a portfolio of completed ceramic, anterior, cosmetic, implant, or full-arch cases. We are especially interested in examples that demonstrate your understanding of dental anatomy, shade, translucency, surface texture, characterization, and overall aesthetic judgment.
