Education: Dental laboratory technicians may receive their education and training through a two-year program at a community college, vocational school, technical college, university or dental school. Graduates of these programs receive either an associate degree or a certificate. There also are a few programs that offer a four-year baccalaureate program in dental technology.

I would not like to be one because i have went through enough with the process of my braces that I would not like to be associated with anything about teeth ever again.
