This week we talk with Richard Rosas 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.
