"Committed to providing the highest quality crowns, bridges and implants, SCDL is Australia's only truly global dental laboratory, with worldwide locations that now includes our new Sydney laboratory and Melbourne office."
We take great pride in the degree of quality control employed at all levels, meeting very stringent ISO standards which require adherence to strict guidelines. These are confirmed by regular on-site audits and visits, and the reliance only on CE approved materials. Details of the materials we use for all our restorations can be found in this document.
Furthermore, we comply to EC (European), FDA (US), TGA (Australia) and GDC (UK) standards. Our ISO accreditation ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 13485 : 2003/2007 is rare amongst dental labs worldwide and reflects our quality control systems which are in place. As dedicated dentists and specialists ourselves, we would never wish to be associated with anything other than the highest level of quality and workmanship. We all utilise our own laboratory for all our own patients and are very proud of this.
For quality management systems, the international standard ISO 13485 is an independent standard and was designed for companies in the medical and dental devices sector.
This international standard defines requirements of quality assurance systems for the design/development, production, customer service and assembly of medical and dental devices. It covers all GMP principles (GMP = Good Manufacturing Practice) that apply for the manufacturing of medical and dental devices. In addition to the ISO 9001 requirements, a series of additional criteria must be fulfilled for ISO 13485.
