Full-arch rehabs · Cosmetic cases · The smiles other labs turn down
Send us the case you'd be nervous handing a new lab. If it doesn't meet your expectations — it's on us.
Restorations that drop in with almost no adjustment. Patients who compliment the smile before they leave the chair. A lab that works the way you already do, analog or digital, and backs the result. Start with one case and see it before you commit to anything bigger.

What it looks like
Imagine your next case going like this.
The smile drops in. A couple of taps on the bite, maybe one, proximal contacts barely need a touch. No adjusting, no "let's just fix this real quick" while the patient watches the clock. They see it in the mirror before they're even out of the chair.
That moment isn't ours. It's yours. You're the one who gets the reaction, the hug, the "I can't stop smiling" text a week later. We just make sure you're never standing there explaining why it doesn't fit.
That's not a fantasy version of a dental lab. That's a lab that treats your reputation like it's their own, because for over 35 years, it has been. Fewer adjustments means less chair time and more trust with every patient you seat. That's what you're actually buying: not a crown, a lab that makes you look good.

The stakes
Switching labs shouldn't feel like a gamble.
You already know the risk. A new lab, a case that comes back too tight or a half-shade off, and now you're the one grinding chairside, rebooking the patient, and explaining why. The lab moves on. You wear it.
And when you call to sort it out? A different rep every time. A ticket number. Nobody who actually touched your case.
That's the real reason most dentists stay with a lab they've outgrown — not price. Switching is scary. So we built the entry to remove the fear entirely.
Why we can promise it
We'd rather flag it than remake it.
At a big corporate lab, your case is another file in the pile: milled and shipped, no one really looking at it. With us, every case goes through the quarterback: someone reviewing the whole play before it runs: margin, bite, contact, sequencing, making sure every parameter is set up right so the case is a win for you, the patient, and us. If something's off, you hear about it before we cut, with the fix already in hand. Fewer adjustments. Fewer remakes. Restorations that drop in the way they were designed to.
Shade checked to the requested tab before it leaves the lab
One of BC's most established labs. Full-service — single crowns through full-mouth rehab — under one roof, since 1991.
The Starter Case
Everything in your Starter Case
The Case + The Guarantee
Any esthetic or simple case. The shade-critical, cosmetic case you'd normally hesitate to send a new lab.
The Zero-Remake Guarantee. If it doesn't seat and match, we remake it, free, until it's right. No forms, no fight.
The Speed
A guaranteed 5-day turnaround. Not a rushed 48-hour crown — a hand-layered case you can schedule your patient around, back when we say it will be.
Same-day or next-day crowns if you're local. Close enough to us? Get it back even faster.
Priority redo lane. If anything ever needs adjusting, you skip the queue. Fast where it counts.
No Switching Required
Analog or digital: we work with what you already use. You don't have to change your workflow. And if you're not getting adjustment-free results, ask us about our adjustment-free impression system.
We connect your scanner for you. Our digital specialist handles the setup and walks your team through it.
Analog or digital, send it however you already work
The Success System — delivered the moment you're onboarded
Ocean Scan Guide — "Seat It, Don't Grind It." So the scan comes in production-ready.
Ocean Shade-Taking Guide. So your team nails the shade on the first try.
Ocean Picture Protocol. The exact photos we need for a cosmetic match.
Ocean Bonding Protocol Library. So it seats and holds, chairside, every material.
Material Selection Guide. Helps you choose the right material for the clinical situation on any given case.
Your Success System, handed to you before your first case
The Access — what no $55 corporate lab can give you
An owner, every time. Text, call, or email us directly. You reach an owner and RDT who actually understands your case: no call center, no rotating reps, no ticket numbers. Your case has an owner, and you have their number.
The owners, the people you'll actually be talking to

The guarantee has your back.
If it doesn't seat and match, we remake it free until it's right. That's the whole point.
the fit
This is built for a specific kind of practice.
It's for you if you:
Do fee-for-service, cosmetic, or full-mouth work — or want to
Care more about the result than shaving five dollars off a crown
Are tired of being bounced around a corporate lab
Want a lab partner, not a vendor
Send high volume and want a real relationship, not just a price list
It's not for you if you:
Are shopping labs purely on who's cheapest
Want to sign off on every internal decision we make
Are looking for a transaction, not a long-term relationship
We stay small on purpose, so a real ceramist handles your case, not a production line. That means we onboard a limited number of new practices each month.
The track recorD
Numbers a cut-rate lab can't put behind a guarantee.
"The best fit I've had from a lab. Crowns drop right into place. Aesthetics are on point, turnaround is within a few days, and the staff are a pleasure to work with."
Dr. Justin Geller, JMG Dentistry
"If you're just starting your full-mouth journey, there's not a better lab to work with anywhere in the world. Curt, David, James, and Tyrel are available anytime you need them, a huge resource to lean on as you treatment plan these large, complex cases. Each case gets easier because of their guidance."
Dr. Colin Robertson, Impressions Dental, Oklahoma
The reversal
The only lab audition where the risk is on us.
Send the case you'd be nervous about. If it doesn't seat and match, you don't pay for it: we remake it until it does. That's not a promotion. It's how confident we are in the work.
Claim your spot
Start with one case. See the difference before you commit to anything bigger.
We onboard a limited number of new practices each month so every case gets a real ceramist's attention. Claim your spot and we'll take it from there.
