Quality Certifications
Providing high-quality dental restorations has been our focus since we first opened our doors in 1953. Quality certifications, such as DAMAS and CDL, are just another way for us to provide our clients with peace-of-mind that the restorations they receive from us not only look and fit great but are made using the highest quality materials and production processes.
In 2011, Nakanishi Dental Laboratory underwent an extensive third-party audit to become Washington State's FIRST privately-owned laboratory to hold the distinguished DAMAS accreditation. DAMAS is a voluntary third-party inspection of every aspect of the dental laboratory, including equipment, materials, personnel, and processes. DAMAS is an international certification administered in North America by the National Association of Dental Laboratories.
Nakanishi Dental Laboratory has been a Certified Dental Laboratory (CDL) since 1968. This certification is administered by the National Board for Certification in Dental Laboratory Technology to dental labs that maintain their facilities in accordance with the requirements set forth by the National Board for Certification.
