Dental Lab WorkflowsRequired case information
The workflow starts by collecting enough information to avoid callbacks, rework, and missed handoffs.
- Appliance type and design notes
- Doctor instructions and files
- Patient details, model or scan status
- Due date, delivery method, and remake notes
Typical production stages
Every lab can adjust stages, but a clear shared sequence makes the work easier to manage.
- 1 Intake
- 2 Model or digital preparation
- 3 Wire, acrylic, or appliance fabrication
- 4 Finishing
- 5 Quality check
- 6 Delivery
Common bottlenecks
- Unclear appliance design instructions

- Delivery dates tracked outside production
