For Dentists

Quality dental laboratory services for referring practices, with local craftsmanship and direct communication on every case.

Welcome to the Dental Laboratory

At Yu Dental Laboratory, we focus on creating high-quality, aesthetic dental appliances for dental practices across New Zealand. Whether you need a single-tooth replacement or a complete denture, we prioritise precision and care in every case. Based in Wellington, we use nationwide courier services to receive and return cases, allowing us to work closely with dental professionals throughout New Zealand.

Our approach is all about teamwork, involving you from the first discussion of the case to the final delivery. This ensures that our results not only align with your standards but also surpass your patients' expectations.

We proudly handle both removable implant solutions, including overdentures and implant bar retainers, using materials that comply with New Zealand and European standards.

Additionally, we are fully equipped for digital workflows and can easily accept digital scans directly from your practice, streamlining the entire process. Choose Yu Dental Laboratory for your dental appliance needs and witness the enhanced quality and service we offer to your practice.
