Hungry! He went through 4-5 years of vigorous Removable teachings under the tutelage of our awesome Dentist on staff, two 30+ yr technicians, & two Lab owners.
He began overseeing all Removable production, workflow, and quality control, while producing HIGH-END restorations and making sure all of the Removable accounts' needs were met.

"I am truly head over heels with the individuality one could showcase with their work as a dental technician! I love the artistry and aesthetics that go into fabricating a restoration for an edentulous patient! Lastly and most importantly, the relationships we build - and the lives that we change each and every day, will forever wake me up in the morning!"

This week we talk with Richard Rosa Sr, an artist-turned-removable specialist whose journey took him from salsa studios and computer programming to managing a lab and mastering high-volume implant workflows at ClearChoice Dental Implant Centers. After seeing firsthand the power of chairside collaboration and in-house efficiency, Richard built a boutique removable lab — and then took it a step further by creating a fully functional mobile dental lab inside a Sprinter van. Now he’s redefining how dentures are delivered, combining speed, aesthetics, and patient connection while sharing his workflow through education and content creation.
