Next Dental Lab

What Next Dental Lab does

Next Dental Lab, operating as LaboSmile USA LLC, is a full-service dental laboratory that manufactures and ships dental prosthetic products to licensed dental practices across the continental United States. Its portfolio covers Crown and Bridge (All-Ceramic, PFM, Full-Cast), removable Full and Partial Dentures, Dental Implants (including custom abutments and screw-retained solutions), Hybrid Dentures, Clear Aligners, and Retainers/Night Guards. Production is organized across three tiers — Classic (overseas, 8-12 business day turnaround), Plus (overseas, extended warranty), and Elite (USA-made, 5-business-day guaranteed turnaround in the South Florida tri-county area) — with warranties ranging from 1 to 5 years depending on product category and tier.

The company operates a digital-first manufacturing workflow built on CAD/CAM technology, 3D scanning, and 3D printing, accepting STL files from any open intraoral scanner system and offering native support for Shining 3D, iTero, 3Shape, Sirona, Medit, Midmark, Carestream, and HeronCloud. Distribution is handled through three U.S. shipping centers in Florida (East), California (West), and New Jersey (Northeast), with UPS as the primary carrier and a self-serve client portal (next.dentallab.io) for case tracking, messaging, and payments; a Texas center is currently paused.

The go-to-market is direct-to-dentist via online self-registration (with a $50 first-case credit) plus a Scanner Reimbursement Program that partners with iScanDental.com and Shining 3D to finance intraoral scanners over 12-36 months in exchange for monthly digital-case minimums. Pricing is pay-as-you-go, unit-based ($30 for PFM, $39 for Classic Zirconia, $47 for Emax, $68 for Full Dentures, $89 for Elite Zirconia), with no long-term contracts and free shipping for accounts exceeding $3,500 monthly statement value.
