Let's take a look at how your dental laboratory's expenses should stack up:
Manufacturing Overhead (10%)
Direct Labor & Benefits (30%)
Purchased Materials (10%)
Indirect Overhead (15%)
Indirect Labor & Benefits (15%)

As you can see, Direct Labor and Purchased Materials represent an expense equal to 40% of your sales. These are the areas where most lab owners are losing profits! Our goal at Speedent Dental Supplies is to help laboratory owners become more profitable by bringing them tools, products and materials that will not only reduce remakes, but also help them operate more efficiently, more consistently and more profitably.

In order to control your labor costs, you must make efficient use of your time and meet minimum production standards:

Since we are laboratory owners, we look for places to save time and money, and improve quality.  That's why we offer outstanding alloys that are cleaner, easier to cast and metal finish, and priced very competitively.

Look to the Kersten line of porcelain brushes and polishes if you want to make the most of your time at the porcelain bench.

And talk about wasting time! Quit messing around with a dozen different implant systems, and assorted tools. Speedent offers you consistency from case to case with parts designed to make your life easier and simplify the most complicated restorative challenges.
