  • Retrieve historical paperwork or case files as needed for case clarification, reworks, or reference
  • Organize and manage digital impressions and case records following established laboratory procedures
  • Continuously expand knowledge of dental terminology, restorative products, and laboratory processes to ensure accuracy and efficiency
  • Understand and follow the established case flow and scheduling operations
  • Perform additional duties or tasks as assigned to support team and laboratory operations
