…We have just been awarded by the National Board for Certification the highly recognized status of a Certified Dental Laboratory, CDL. Only about 3% of all US laboratories have achieved this Certification. We’re excited to share this with you.
The following copied from NBCs website explains just how valuable this Certification is…
The Certified Dental Laboratory (CDL) provides you assurance that a laboratory has met specific standards relating to quality assurance, safety, and business manufacturing practices.
The CDL is recognized by the National Association of Dental Laboratories (NADL), the American Dental Association (ADA) and the American College of Prosthodontists (ACP).
Certification in the dental laboratory profession is voluntary. Laboratories who have taken the extra steps to become certified represent the top of their field. CDLs have documented not only compliance with peer-defined standards but a desire to stay in the forefront of the industry. A Certified Dental Laboratory takes pride in the quality and professionalism of its products and services.
The National Board for Certification of Dental Laboratories has established specific standards for personnel skills, laboratory facilities and infection control in dental laboratories. Achieving and maintaining certification offers a laboratory a nationally recognized credential attesting to compliance with competency standards that are widely accepted by dentistry and dental technology. This can be invaluable in establishing credibility with outside third parties, including courts of law, insurance companies and government.
Yes, we are very excited to share with you the gaining our CDL status. It’s another way to let you know we care about everything we do for you and always driven to represent you well.
