Satisfaction Gurantee

Satisfying our customers is the #1 goal at Mariner Dental Laboratory. We pride ourselves in our work and the delivery of our work to you. We stand behind our work for one full year after delivery. Should a case be unsatisfactory due to a failure in craftsmanship or materials, return it and we will remake it FREE of charge to your original prescription. We will absolutely, positively make you and your patient smile. For the discriminating dentist, Mariner Dental Laboratory is just what the doctor ordered. Send us a test case, and we will prove it.

If there is anything equal to the quality of our work - according to the survey - it's our service. We prefer to work with the discriminating dentist who, in turn, prefers a partnership with a lab that prides itself on meeting their needs with one-on-one personal attention instead of an assembly line. We consistently follow your instructions to the letter, contacting you whenever we need clarification.

If needed,we will provide personal consultations on case design and shade selection. We move mountains to meet the needs and schedule of your practice. That's why, if you say you are happy with your current lab, we can reply with confidence, "Then you'll be even happier with us." Because, when you work with a great lab, you get great results.
