About
A CDT who also keeps the network up
Thirty years at the bench. Thirty-five in IT. The cases get both.
I am Kevin Miller, a Certified Dental Technician and IT professional with more than three decades at the bench and on the network.
In the dental laboratory I specialize in partials, dentures, crown and bridge, ceramics, and implant restorations — work that demands a blend of artistic skill and scientific precision. I have spent my career mastering that balance.
At the same time I have spent more than 35 years in information technology, with deep experience in Windows and Linux systems, networking, and digital fabrication: CAD/CAM design, CNC milling, and 3D printing.
What sets the work apart is where those two worlds meet. I bring practical IT into laboratory workflows so prosthetic design is more accurate, more efficient, and more consistent — honoring traditional craftsmanship while using the tools that actually move a case forward.
