This week had the pleasure of speaking with Vladimir Roman, a dental lab owner based in Florida, who shared his unique journey into the dental industry. Vladimir’s story is not just about his career; it’s a testament to embracing change and innovation in a field that is constantly evolving.
Vladimir began his journey in the military, where he discovered the existence of dental labs while pursuing a career in the Air Force. Initially focused on aviation, he found himself drawn to the dental field, ultimately leading to a fulfilling career in dental technology. His experience in the military provided him with a robust training foundation that he has built upon throughout his career.
One of the key themes of the conversation was the importance of collaboration between dental technicians and dentists. Vladimir emphasized that effective communication and teamwork are essential for achieving the best outcomes for patients. This collaborative spirit is what drives him and his team at Romanax Dental Lab to provide high-quality surgical guides and dental solutions.
Vladimir shared insights on the evolution of digital workflows and the role of 3D printing in modern dental practices. He highlighted how technology has transformed the way dental labs operate, making processes more efficient and allowing for greater precision in patient care. The use of virtual assistants in his lab has further streamlined operations, enabling technicians to focus on their core tasks while ensuring that administrative duties are handled effectively.
Vladimir’s passion for education and mentorship shines through as he discusses the training programs he offers for both dental technicians and dentists. He believes that knowledge sharing is crucial for the growth of the industry, and he is committed to helping others learn about surgical guides and implant planning.
