Brandon Trice uses a state of the art porcelain oven. He fires porcelain to make it tooth colored. Once he has the desired shade, the porcelain is vitrified in the oven to become a tooth. A computer component in the equipment automates and controls this process. The use of computers has changed – and improved – a lot of processes in dental labs.

Charles Winter has been a dental technician with Drs. Werrin, Gruendel and Miller’s office for 45 years. He makes fixed crowns, bridges and glass composite restorations. He designs the crown in wax and casts it in a furnace. While composite onlays and inlays are increasingly popular, Charles says that he has been working with gold for 40 years and thinks it is still the best material.

Brandon also uses a surveyor to help build a removable prosthesis. At the same station the microscope is used by the techs to check the quality of the restorations made in our lab. Charles and Brandon classify the lab as a “Boutique Lab,” adding that with a limited amount of space and personnel this innovative dental lab provides a full range of services.

Dr. Gruendel is our resident expert on removable appliances. Dr. Gruendel is hands on when it comes to designing and fabricating all of his removable dentures and partials. He will take his patients from their initial impression, to wax-up try in, to finished appliance. These are all custom made in our lab by Dr. Gruendel.

Please feel free to call our office for any of your dental needs. Our telephone number is 412-621-0200, extension 10. Tina, Laura or Elizabeth will be happy to answer any questions you may have and schedule an appointment at your soonest convenience.
