Program Description:

The Dental Technology program prepares students to practice in the field of dental technology and to work as part of an interdisciplinary health care team. Dental Technologists make a major contribution to the practice of dentistry. They are involved in the design, fabrication and alteration of dental prosthetic, restorative and orthodontic devices as prescribed by regulated dental practitioners.

These devices include:

  • full dentures

  • partial dentures

  • crowns

  • bridges

  • implant-related restorations

  • orthodontic appliances

  • other specialty items

The curriculum is academic and laboratory based with a strong emphasis on applied learning in a laboratory setting. It is recommended that applicants have strong fine motor skills and enjoy hands-on projects that require attention to detail.

This program is unique in Ontario.

Without a certificate they may work as an assistant under the supervision of a Registered Dental Technologist.
