About Us

WHY SATISFACTION DENTAL?

Why Full Service Matters

 

In complex cases involving fixed and removable work, interdepartmental planning and coordination is essential for an exceptional, predictable result.  Our technicians not only coordinate with the doctor, but with each other, throughout the progress of your case.

​

​
On Time, Every Time
​

Quality work is of no value if it's not in your hands when the patient arrives.  With our in-house delivery and pickup service, it will be.  Regional delivery is handled by Fed Ex, UPS or Greenlight Express for their predictable, reliable service.
 

Certified Dental Technicians

​

Every technician at Satisfaction Dental has a minimum of twenty years experience in the dental field and participates in continuing education to stay abreast of new techniques and materials.  Working with Certified Dental Technicians ensures that you are working with specialists who exceed industry standards in every way.

​

​
Relentlessly Consistent

 

Precision is our passion and remakes are almost nonexistent. With the latest technology, the finest materials, and our highly experienced, long-term technicians, you get exceptional restorations, time after time. That means natural esthetics, precise margins, proper contours, accurate shades, and superior function. That means a happy patient and more referrals for your practice!
 

Text Messaging

 

Your time is valuable.  Calling in a pickup request can take 90 seconds.  Asking about a due date can take 2-3 minutes.  Texting pickup requests and other case information takes a fraction of the time. 

​

We value every minute of your day!

​

Video Conference

 

Imagine having an in-house Certified Dental Technician with you for a virtual visit with your patient. This technology allows your CDT to see what you see! We understand that your patient is not simply a stone model; real-time observation offers your CDT a more complete perspective and a more cohesive end-result for you and your patient.
