Pick-Up and Delivery
Technic Dental lab offers pick-up and delivery services for your convenience and in order to offer you quick turn-around time. Technic drivers service a 25-mile radius Monday through Friday. Simply phone in a pick-up when the case is ready and we will send a driver out to your office. If you need to have a case picked-up or delivered to a location other than your office, call to let us know or indicate that on the lab slip so that we can ensure a safe and on-time delivery of your case.
For those of you with practices outside our delivery parameters, we offer service through a third party. When scheduling cases utilizing a third-party delivery service, please allow for two extra days of transport in addition to lab work times. Please let the delivery service know of any other specific information regarding where to pick-up and deliver cases.
Shipping Policy
Technic will provide all shipping supplies, including boxes and lab slips upon request. If additional materials are needed, please call or indicate on your lab slip and all materials will be provided to you on your next scheduled pick-up or delivery.
To ensure that your models arrive intact, we recommend wrapping each model individually or two models back-to-back. If sending alginate impressions, please wrap in moist towelettes and seal in a plastic bag.
Technic adheres to strict OSHA standards of Infection Control procedures. All cases entering the lab will be disinfected to ensure the safety of our technicians. We encourage you to properly secure the contents of your shipment to ensure the safety of our drivers and employees.

Sending Models
In order to ensure accurate fit and fabrication, please check all models and impressions before sending them out. The lab will fabricate the prosthetic to fit the model precisely. Check for clarity of anatomy and lack of distortions or voids. This will reduce the chances of needing to retake the impression at a later date.
Hours:
Monday - Friday 9am - 5 pm, Closed Saturday and Sunday.
