After graduating from DTI, you will not be required to have any further licensing or certification to be employed in the dental field. However, you may wish to obtain a license from the National Board of Certification (NBC) –an independent board founded by the National Association of Dental Laboratories (NADL) to certify dental laboratories and their technicians. Since certification is voluntary, it represents not only compliance with established standards, but also a special personal commitment to quality and professionalism.
