Terms

Terms of use.

The terms on which this website and its content are provided. Last reviewed September 2026.

Who this website is for

This website is written for dentists, prosthodontists, denturists and their teams. It describes the services of a dental laboratory and provides technical reference material for dental professionals.

It is not directed at patients. Nothing on it is dental or medical advice to a patient, and patients should consult their own dental professional.

Technical content

The Knowledge Centre, guides and reference pages describe laboratory practice, materials and technique in general terms. They reflect the laboratory's experience and generally accepted practice at the time of writing.

They are provided to inform professional judgement, not to replace it. Treatment decisions remain the responsibility of the treating clinician, who has examined the patient. Material properties, manufacturer guidance and clinical evidence change; verify anything on which a clinical decision depends against current sources.

We take care to keep the content accurate and we do not warrant that it is complete, current or error-free.

Laboratory services

Descriptions of services, materials, processes and arrangements on this website are general. The terms that apply to a particular practice — pricing, scheduling, remake and warranty terms, and delivery arrangements — are those agreed with the laboratory directly, and prevail over anything here.

Requesting a fee guide, submitting the contact form, or downloading a prescription form does not create a client relationship or a commitment on either side.

Testimonials and case studies

Testimonials are the words of the practices credited, published with their permission. They describe those practices' experience and are not a guarantee of any result.

Case studies are published only with documented patient consent and the approval of the referring practice.

Images

Images are for illustration purposes.

Use of this website

Liability

To the extent permitted by law, Fairmont Dental Lab is not liable for any loss arising from reliance on the content of this website. This does not limit liability that cannot be excluded by law, and it does not affect the terms agreed with clients for laboratory work.

Governing law

We may update these terms; the date at the top is the last review. Continued use of the site after a change is acceptance of it. Last reviewed September 2026.
