Dental lab Technician
Duties and
responsibilities: They take
orders from dentists and design and construct dental replacements. Some things
that they may construct are bridges, dentures, crowns, and orthopedic
appliances. They have to be able to use wax, metals, and casts to duplicate the
teeth. Usually they make models of the patient’s mouth so that they can understand
how the jaw and teeth fit together.
Salary: $40,000-$70,000
Education: To be a dental lab technician you
have to at least have a high school diploma. It would work more if in high
school you would focus on math, science, information technology, wood shop, and
art.

Reflection: Do you think you would like to be
one? Why? Why not?
I think
that I would want to be a Dental lab technician. The reason why I think this is
because I think that to become one you don’t need a lot of education. This
career pays well and it is in the medical field which is something that I want
to do. Also there was a time when I wanted to become a dentist or a dentist
assistant so I think that I would be interested in a career like this.
