About Us :

Spectrum Killian Dental Lab Alliance (SKDLA) is a nationally recognized leader in restorative dentistry, passionate about helping people smile with confidence. We partner with dental professionals across the country to deliver world-class restorations, advanced dental equipment, and trusted services that make a difference for patients every day.

At SKDLA, we combine craftsmanship, cutting-edge technology, and a deep commitment to quality to create beautiful, lasting results. More than just a dental lab, we are driven by the belief that every restoration represents a person's confidence, comfort, and well-being - and that's a responsibility we take to heart.

Our operations are centered around two advanced Centers of Excellence located in Orange County and Los Angeles. This collaborative environment allows our skilled technicians to innovate, mentor one another, and consistently deliver outstanding results.

Overview :

SKDLA is expanding our professional Operations team and seeking a dynamic, hands-on leader to help shape the future of our growing dental lab network. As a Business Unit Director Full Arch , you'll serve as both the strategic and operational leader for the Full Arch (All on X) business unit. The Full Arch Business Unit leads the design, engineering, and manufacturing of full-arch and "All-on-X" implant-supported restorations, combining dental craftsmanship with advanced digital and AI-driven manufacturing. Through integrated digital workflows and precision fabrication, we transform clinical data into restorations that deliver superior esthetics, strength, and fit.

Collaborating closely with surgeons, prosthodontists, and clinical partners, we ensure seamless alignment with surgical protocols while maintaining tight process control, rapid turnaround, and consistent reproducibility across our lab network. Centralized capabilities in zirconia and titanium milling, polymer and composite frameworks, and aesthetic finishing enable scalable, high-quality production.

The Business Unit Director thrives at the intersection of technology, manufacturing, and craftsmanship—building scalable systems that ensure quality at the source while optimizing speed and efficiency. A key focus is leading a cultural shift that balances deep dental expertise with disciplined process flow. By translating artisanal knowledge into standardized, repeatable methods and applying root cause and corrective action (RCCA), this role establishes the foundation for consistent quality, scalability, and continuous improvement.
