The premise

The lab shouldn’t set your schedule.

Quality is the baseline. Reliable timing is what we add to it.

When a crown takes longer than planned, the cost lands in your operatory: a temporary that has to hold, a seat appointment that moves, a patient who takes another afternoon off.

SmileXpress is built so that doesn’t happen. Our standard is 48 hours, designed and checked here in Phoenix, so the seat date you set at the prep is the one you keep.

The background

DSO-scale production, built for independent practices.
Zach TandyFounder, SmileXpress Dental Studio

For twelve years I built and ran the internal lab for a multi-state dental group, scaling it as the organization grew from 8 practices to 27 across four states.

Every unit that lab produced went to a chair that had to stay on schedule, in front of a doctor whose name was on the result. No price advantage ever fixed a late case. Neither did an apology.

SmileXpress runs on the same production systems, quality checks, and scheduling discipline, now available to practices without an in-house lab.

Three speeds. One fit.

Speed is planned capacity, not a favor.

How it works

From scan to seat in four steps.

STEP 01

Send the case

Digital scan from iTero, 3Shape TRIOS, Medit, or Carestream. Open STL files and traditional impressions are equally welcome.

STEP 02

Submit the lab slip

Build it in the Doctor Portal with photos and shade images. It writes directly into production, so the technician reads exactly what you wrote.

STEP 03

We design, mill and verify

Designed to your prescription, precision milled or printed, and checked against the model before it leaves.

STEP 04

Delivered ready to seat

Arrives on the committed date, verified, with free two-way shipping on prepaid labels.

Cutoffs & confirmation

The times we hold ourselves to.

24-hour cutoff
1:00 PM

In by one for 24-hour service, confirmed within the business hour.

Same-day start
4:30 PM

In by four thirty and the case starts today rather than tomorrow.

Ship
Close of business

Out the door on the day promised. If a case cannot be confirmed, you hear it from us before your patient hears it from you.

Account & case setup

Set it up once. Never think about it again.

STEP 01

Request access

Click Open an account and enter your name, practice, email and phone. Your activation email arrives right away. Set a password and you are in.

STEP 02

Add a card or connect your bank

ACH is the option we prefer. Stripe holds the credentials; we never see or store the numbers.

STEP 03

Send your first case

That is the whole setup. There is no step four.

Billed when the case is delivered, never when it is submitted One itemized receipt per case, emailed automatically No minimums, no monthly fee, no contract

Refer a practice

Credit, two ways.

If a colleague is fighting the calendar, send them our way. Once their first case is delivered and paid, a $100 credit posts to both accounts. All they have to do is name you in the Referred by field when they request the fee schedule or open their account.
