• High proficiency in porcelain layering techniques (cut-back and layer method)
• Experience working with GC Initial porcelain systems (LiSi, Zr-FS, IQ, or related lines)
• Strong understanding of shade science, translucency, opalescence, and natural tooth anatomy
• Proven portfolio of high-end cosmetic work (candidates will be asked to provide case photos)
• Excellent attention to detail and commitment to quality

Preferred:

• Experience in a digital dental laboratory environment (CAD/CAM, 3D printing workflows)
• Familiarity with full arch restorative cases (implant-supported prosthetics), including layering pink gingiva porcelain
• CDT credential or equivalent certification

What We Offer

• Competitive starting salary of $95,000+ based on experience and skill level
