History

Ragle Dental Laboratory, Inc. is a full service dental lab, based in Champaign, Illinois, that has been serving Central Illinois dentists since 1979. As a full service lab it is our commitment to provide our accounts with the best service, products and technical assistance. The lab specializes in crown & bridge, ceramics, removable full and partial dentures, dental implants and prosthetic components, and full-cast restorations.

Ragle Dental Laboratory was founded by Jerry Ragle, CDT in 1979 who began his dental career as a technician in 1973. Ragle began his career as an apprentice, learning all aspects of dental technology before specializing as a ceramist. Once opening the doors of Ragle Lab, he was able to with rapid growth, hire a staff within his first year. Ragle poured himself into the culture and dental community of Central Illinois, nurturing dentists with the best education, service, and craftsmanship he could provide. Ragle is a Certified Dental Technician himself in ceramics and implants as education and certification are very important to him. In addition Ragle Lab is a Certified Dental Laboratory. Ragle is known for providing numerous free education programs per year to dentists to expand their clinical knowledge and make dental education more accessible. To further demonstrate Ragle’s commitment to providing a first class educational opportunity to dentists and their staff, Ragle Lab opened the Rsolution Learning Center in March of 2012. This is a state-of-the-art training and education facility built on the Ragle campus for continual improvement of what we all do together to serve the patient.
