James R. Glidewell, Dental Ceramics, Inc.
Glidewell Laboratories is a household name in dental offices. The dental lab makes a wide range of restorative, reconstructive, and cosmetic dental products, such as crowns, dentures, and bridges. Its BDL Prosthetics division makes aesthetic temporary teeth (known as BioTemps) used for provisional restoration until final ceramic restorations are ready. Glidewell Laboratories and BDL employ a mail-order business model, with dentists sending in dental impressions and receiving custom restorative products via the US Postal Service or FedEx. Another division, Glidewell Direct, sells clinical and laboratory products, including impression materials, via an e-commerce site.
