Dental laboratory technicians are needed to help maintain good oral hygiene for koreans, along with the development of dental technology, equipment and materials. Courses for the fabrication of dental prostheses and removable orthodontics are taught in this major. Excellent technicians are produced with experience through actual practice in the student laboratory.
