Our History
A new era in dental technology commenced when Image Dental Laboratory began operations in 2006. Created from a combined vision of husband and wife team Jennifer Fowler and Ali Khonsari, they sought out to build on the guiding principles of quality, consistency, and communication established by Mr. Eric Fowler, Jennifer’s father, when he founded the Central Dental Laboratories in 1967.
Today, Image Dental Laboratory continues to focus on the needs of our clients and their patients. As technology continues to evolve, so does the laboratory and our team of skilled technicians. At the core of our mission, we are still focused on our guiding principles of fit, finish, delivery, and an experience that is excellent.

State of the Art Facility
33 Quarry Ridge was designed and built to be the home of a dental laboratory. We didn’t just “fit” our dental laboratory into an available space. From control over temperature and humidity through maximizing the use of natural light, our goal in creating this workspace was to give our accomplished technicians every opportunity to create their best work. You will notice uncommon touches at IDL like the fact that we work with microscopes on every bench, have incorporated a smartboard into our Education centre and have a dedicated state of the art digital design room.
Higher Learning
Our technicians have benefitted from continuing education from Las Vegas to Portugal and all points in between. We have brought industry leading experts, entrepreneurs, clinicians and technicians from San Diego to Luxembourg. We are always evolving to learn and continue sharing our successes with our partners and their patients.
Current Technology & Design
As technology continues to evolve in the world, we continue to adapt to these changes and ensure the smoothest transition when fabricating any dental prosthesis. As regular attendees at trade shows and symposiums worldwide, IDL stays ahead of the technological curve. We use tablets at the bench for each technician to improve communication and utilize some amazing process technologies with printers, mills and scanners while ensuring that hand finishing every product maintains the highest quality and standards possible.
Specialists in Reconstruction
Planning a case is challenging. With our team of experts, we take great pride in reviewing and understanding the goals for the patient and the limitations that are presented to the clinician. By reviewing and sharing the technical challenges of the case, we work together and find the best solution with a predictable outcome. Contact us today to schedule an appointment with our experts.
FIT, FINISH, DELIVERY AND EXPERIENCE!
We didn’t create that motto – we learned it. These are the four key principles or pillars on which we are building the future of IDL and our people. Our clients told us to make it fit, make it look beautiful, deliver on time and value the partnership and they will reward us with loyalty. And they do. Fit, finish, delivery and experience. Everytime.
