A typical day involves reviewing case files and prescriptions from dentists, layering and shaping porcelain or ceramic materials to create crowns, bridges, veneers, and other restorations, and working through each stage of fabrication with careful attention to fit, function, and aesthetics. You'll use tools such as ovens, presses, and shading systems to match natural tooth color and texture, and you'll frequently check your work against case specifications to ensure accuracy before final finishing and quality checks.
