The Dental Technology program will prepare students to work in the field of dental technology. Those who want to work in the dental industry but don’t necessarily want to engage directly with client care, should consider this profession. George Brown College recommends that those who apply have an eye for detail, enjoy working with their hands and have good hand/eye coordination.
This program will teach students to use a variety of tools to create oral devices that are prescribed by regulated dental practitioners (often a dentist). Students will learn how to use specialized hand tools, molds and the latest technology to make oral devices that are as unique as the individuals students will be creating them for. Students will practice their skills in George Brown College’s on-site high-tech dental labs as the school teaches its students to create:
- full dentures
- partial dentures
- crowns
- bridges
- implant-regulated restorations
- orthodontic appliances
- other specialty items.
