DOVER AIR FORCE BASE, Del. – Tech. Sgt. Raymond Worl, 436th Dental Squadron NCO in-charge of the dental laboratory, uses a three-dimensional digital computerized milling unit incorporating Computer-Aided Design technology to fabricate all-porcelain crowns for difficult dental cases.

Dental Lab

DOVER AIR FORCE BASE, Del. – Tech. Sgt. Raymond Worl, 436th Dental Squadron NCO in-charge of the dental laboratory, holds a finished crown tooth. The dentist takes a picture of a patient’s tooth and the information is transferred to a milling instrument. A porcelain block is placed inside the milling unit and the machine automatically molds the porcelain block with metal burs to create the finished product. The Computer Aid Design machine allows dental lab technicians to eliminate several steps in tooth fabrication which cuts down the time needed to make a crown without using metal.
