Dentists: why choose a DLA laboratory?

Dental laboratories that are members of the DLA are committed to providing excellent standards of work and complying with the latest regulations (e.g. the Medical Devices Regulations). By choosing a DLA lab you can rest assured that they will provide you and your patients with the highest quality and customer care. Just as important, you can be confident that you are not putting your patients at risk by unwittingly using an unregistered lab.

All DLA member laboratories must abide by the DLA Code of Practice, which covers everything from their service and product descriptions to training and complaints handling.

Many DLA labs are also members of DAMAS, the Dental Appliance Manufacturers Audit Scheme. This involves a stringent auditing process and means that they implement regular checks throughout every stage of their production process to ensure consistent quality and eliminate errors. DAMAS is based on the proven quality management principles enshrined in ISO 9002, tailored to reflect the practical aspects of manufacturing dental appliances and compliance with dental industry regulations.
