SimpleLabOS for Education

Free lab software for dental technology programs

Students learn the craft at the bench. The labs that hire them also run on software for cases, due dates, remakes and billing. Teach that side too, at no cost to your program.

What students can practise

From Rx to shipped

Log a case from a prescription, assign it to a technician, move it through production steps and record the shipment.

Both sides of a case

One student sends a case through the doctor portal as the dentist; another receives it in the lab and works it through to delivery.

The business side

Price cases from a fee schedule, raise invoices, send monthly statements and spot the cases that are running late.

Who can apply

Dental laboratory technology and dental technician programs at schools, colleges and training centres. Apply as an instructor or program director, from your school email address.

Ground rules

  • Use it for teaching and practice cases only. Please don't enter real patient records: SimpleLabOS does not currently offer a BAA.
  • It isn't for commercial lab work. If your program also runs a production lab for paying clients, talk to us about a regular plan.
  • Once each school year we'll email you to confirm you're still teaching with it.
