Thank you for reading last week’s post about the 4 Major Problems in the Dental Laboratory Industry. As promised, this week, we're sharing a simple solution to the problem of USA dental technician certification becoming increasingly unavailable. Keep reading as we dismantle this issue in the dental lab industry:
Problem #1: USA dental technician certification is increasingly becoming unavailable
When there are fewer opportunities (i.e. dental lab schools) available, dental labs obviously experience more difficulty finding skilled dental lab techs.
Solution: If you’re one of the few, fortunate, large-sized dental laboratories, the solution is for you to offer training programs to educate recently graduated technicians.
Small- and mid-sized dental laboratories may not have the funding to offer training programs, but can offer on-site training instead.
Worried about your dental lab tech taking advantage of your on-the-job training and leaving you for a larger lab? Determine the cost of on-the-job training to your business and factor this into the work contract with a stipulation along the lines of “[EMPLOYEE] agrees to work for [MY DENTAL LAB] for a consecutive period of at least [TIME DURATION e.g. 12 months] otherwise [EMPLOYEE] agrees to repay [MY DENTAL LAB] for the cost of on-the-job training, [$$]”*.

While standardized testing and certification is necessary for the future, on-the-site dental lab tech training is benefits the dental community at large.
Thanks for joining us this week, and remember to check in again next Thursday when we answer part 2 of the 4 Major Problems in the Dental Laboratory Industry: Dental technician certification is either not required or unimportant to dental techs.
