About Summit-Horizon Dental Lab

Trusted in St. Louis. Serving Dentists Nationwide.

For more than 30 years, Summit Horizon Dental Lab has partnered with dentists across St. Louis, Missouri, the Midwest, and the U.S. to deliver restorations engineered for predictable fit, esthetics, and long-term function. 


Our philosophy is simple: every restoration should seat confidently the first time.

OUR MISSION & CORE VALUES

At Summit-Horizon, our mission is to empower dental professionals with restorations that elevate patient outcomes, reduce chair time, and support practice growth.


Quality Excellence

Every case moves through a multi-step QC protocol to ensure accurate margins, consistent contacts, and natural anatomy.


Value-Driven Results

Precision doesn’t have to come at a premium. We balance advanced digital workflows with efficient production to deliver dependable outcomes at fair costs.
