Lab Overview

About

Midwest Dental Arts has five locations across the United States. Our companies roots started in Cedar Rapids 25 miles north of the University of Iowa School of Dentistry. We are a leader in implant restorations including custom abutments, full arch zirconia, acrylic and pekkton hybrids. Midwest Dental Arts is full service lab providing quality restorations and excellent customer service. All restorations are made in the United States and there is absolutely no outsourcing to overseas labs. We have highly trained dental technicians that stand behind every case with a 5 year warranty. Our friendly staff makes it easy to schedule crown seat dates and we always go the extra mile to accommodate rush cases. Dentists and students are welcome to schedule a tour of our facilities.

Education

Every year we conduct continuing education programs and bring in speakers from different parts of the country. We have taken courses at Dawson, LVI, NYU Advanced Cosmetics, AAID, ICOI, AAMOS and the ACP. Midwest Dental Arts has an AACD accredited technician and we have completed advanced courses on cosmetics with Master Ceramist Jason Kim and most recently with Luke Hasegawa MDT. We are also trained on the BDT (burn out denture) technique using Pekkton. Our courses with anaxdent and GC America give us the knowledge and expetise in the area of full arch implant cases specifically with pink ceramics and composites. 

Dental Technology
We pride ourselves in investing in education and new technology. With the advances made in dentistry over the past ten years we have spent time and energy learning and perfecting CAM/CAM dental restorations. As one of the top implant labs in the country our goal is to design and fabricate the best restoration for each case. No two cases are the same and with scanners and computers we are able to digitally fabricate restorations and email them to you before we start the mill. We have the digital capabilities to make seating your restorations more predictable and make you more productive and profitable. Whether it’s full zirconia, procera, lava, e.max, chromium cobalt and our new favorite titanium “We can mill it”. As the price of gold clears $1400 an ounce we have to consider economical options for most practices. Midwest Dental Arts is a lab you can count on for predictable and profitable results.

We work on everything from single unit full cast crowns to full mouth implant cases. No case is too small or too big. With the knowledge, technology and communication between technician and doctor every case can have the results you are looking for.
