Michael Young completed a program in dental technology at a Philadelphia vocational school and started Young Dental Laboratory in the spare room of his home in 1980. Michael’s exceptional manual dexterity allowed him to excel in orthodontics and open Young Orthodontic Laboratory. In partnership with his wife, Angeline, assisting with many tasks, the business grew into other specialties like removables. Michael supplemented his skills by attending continuing education courses and workshops. The laboratory ultimately moved to a larger space shortly afterwards and later was able to purchase a neighboring building where they spent the next decade.
Their eldest son, Joe, joined the business in 1999 after earning his bachelor’s degree in Business Administration. With Joe as the full-time business administrator, the lab was able to focus on customers and other business functions while his parents focused on production; five years later they moved to another larger location. Their current facility has expanded to include fixed restorative services including conventional crown and bridge, implants, full arch rehabilitation, and an array of digital offerings. In 2005, they obtained Certified Dental Laboratory (CDL) status from the National Association of Dental Laboratories, a credential recognizing strict infection control, case management, an assurance that it has met specific standards of quality control, safety and manufacturing practices.
Their youngest son, Steve, joined the family business in 2011 after earning a degree in Information Technology, a perfect fit to the industry’s growing technological advancements. The digital arsenal today includes scanning technology, design software, milling machines and 3D-printers. As clinical intraoral scanning becomes more popular, they are prepared to accept the growing capabilities of these new technologies and functions.
Young Dental Laboratory’s success is due to the tremendous efforts of its professional team of technicians and staff. They value ongoing education to meet current trends and are prepared to meet the growing demands of clinical and patient expectations utilizing the latest restorative materials, equipment, and technology. They look forward to maintaining growth in digital offerings while seeking avenues that build value through continuing education for clinicians and technicians alike.
Our owner Joe Young started out as a dental professional and was annoyed at the process of getting quality dental equipment so he decided to help contribute to this field himself, thus opening Young Dental Laboratory, Inc.
As on old dental professional, Joe Young knows the struggles of getting dental equipment and is extremely passionate about making that process easier and more accessable.
Aside from the power to remove headaches, Joe Young also believes that dental professionals should be using the best equipment in an affordable manner, which is why we only use the best materials in what we make.
