ROE at Jamestown, New York

ROE Jamestown Dental Laboratory

In 1979, Jamestown Dental Lab, was incorporated and went from a crown and bridge lab, formally Artistic Dental Lab, to a full service lab.

In 1998, previous employees John  Silo and Henry Leworthy became the new owners and formed Jamestown Dental  Lab, LLC.

In 2000, due to a new development, the Lab was relocated to the former Dickies Donut Shop, located at 1115 E 2nd Street.  A total renovation took place to get the former donut shop transformed into a dental lab and in a short 10 months, Jamestown Dental Lab, LLC moved into its new location without missing a day of service to their clients.

The lab continued to operate at this location for another 18+ years, until Jamestown Dental Lab, LLC began a new partnership with ROE Dental Laboratory in September of 2018. The core personnel that make up the Jamestown branch under both labs have worked side by side for many years.

Digital impressions demonstrate excellent margin capture and visibility, enable faster restorations, facilitate quick fabrication, and contribute to a minimal need for occlusal adjustment in final restorations.

Please contact ROE’s customer service at 800.228.6663 or info@roedentallab.com with your email address and we will research your account and set-up a new user name and password. This may take 24 hours, so if you are in a need to upload your case, please mention this in the message and we’ll provide an alternative method of uploading.

What are the fees for your services and products?

Please see ROE Dental’s fee schedule email info@roedentallab.com.


Why am I being charged sales tax, I am tax-exempt.

  • Have you sent ROE a signed tax exempt form?
  • Yes – it should be in the Dr. Master under documents.
  • No – office needs to email ROE the signed form and we can then set up the acct as tax-exempt

I would like to pay my invoice/bill

Let’s complete a credit card form listing the Doctor ID, Dr. Name, Callback number, full credit card number, cvc code, exp, and amount being paid. If you would like to pay with the card on file, please confirm the last 4 digits with them and write the 4 digits down on the slip. If they would like to pay via ACH, please have them fill out an ACH form if they have not already (see Abby if this customer is newly enrolling in ACH), complete a credit card slip stating they would like ACH charged if it is on file.

Notes: We accept credit card, ACH, and check payments


I have questions regarding my invoice/bill

If you would like a copy of an invoice please email info@roedentallab.com.


Do we have Autopay?

We have autopay. We offer credit card autopay or ACH autopay. Please give us a call with ACH information or your credit card info and we’ll set you up. Or go to: https://roedentallab.com/collaboration/roepay/


Can we put money down on a case?

We accept pre-payments. However, the exact invoice total is difficult to calculate in some cases before it started due to additional parts and shipping.


How to pay for a CBCT scan take at ROE?

The doctor tells ROE who is paying for the scan. The referral given to ROE will state either:

a. If the patient is paying, they pay before the scan is taken. By credit/debit card only. We do not accept DISCOVER/cash/check.

b. If the doctor is paying, download CBCT form by printing it from our website: https://roedentallab.com/collaboration/instructions-rx-and-forms/


What is ACH?

ACH is basically a ‘virtual check’. ACH requires routing number and account number from the customer’s bank account, where ROE withdraws the allowed amount from the customer’s bank account directly. ACHs are designed for high-volume, low-value payments, and charge fees low enough to encourage the transfer of low-value payments. We encourage ACH payments because we avoid credit card interest charges and it makes it easier for the customer to pay.

Benefits of ACH:

  • Convenience. With an automated payment, you don’t have to worry about writing a check, finding a stamp, and getting it into the mail on time. If you travel on business frequently, you also have peace of mind, knowing that your bills are being paid even when you’re away from home.
  • Reduced errors. With an automated payment, you don’t run the risk of forgetting to sign your check or entering the wrong amount.
  • Cost Savings. It is expensive to pay somebody to write checks and for most dentists hiring a part-time person that you trust with your checkbook is a challenge and expensive.
  • No finance charges – Ever!

How does a customer get started?
– The customer needs to complete and sign the ROE US ACH Enroll/Change Form

Click here to see our production times and contact us with any questions.

For monolithic crowns, our production times range from 3 – 5 days in the lab depending on impressions/models.


What’s your turnaround time for implant cases?

The production times for our implant crowns range from 4 to 12 days in lab depending on what needs fabricated.


How long do an iJIG and Printed Try-In take?

An iJIG and the subsequent Printed Try-In take 7 days in lab. We send a 3D Preview to your email for your approval. This can add time to the overall case production, waiting for a response, approval, or changes.


What is the process for getting a reline and can you do them the same day?

Once we receive the denture to be relined, the complete process takes 6 hours to be completed and yes, of course, we can do the same day if you are local and you need a hard reline only.

Note: Same day relines need to be picked up at their office no later than 9:15 am to give the courier at least one hour to get back to ROE. Delivery can be no earlier than 4:30 pm on relines.


How much time to fabrication a traditional implant-supported hybrid denture?

These cases have multiple steps – here are the in-lab production times:

  • 3 days bite block and fit the jig
  • 4 days tooth set-up
  • 8 days bar with set-up
  • 4 days reset if needed
  • 4 days to final process

Please give us a call to discuss for more details.


What material can immediate dentures be made from and what is the turnaround time?

Today, immediate dentures are printed from digital designs. Materials range in costs and strength. If you want an inexpensive immediate, we suggest our IMPACT Denture Economy.
The IMPACT Denture Economy can be relined and will last during the healing phase and beyond. It will accept reline material, but it is not the same type of long-term reline as our IMPACT Denture Premium, a printed Lucitone base with cards of teeth. The IMPACT Denture Premium is a little more expensive and can be a final denture for immediate use. ROE may fabricate with a bite block, bite and opposing. This is the future of digital dentures! We also fabricate traditional dentures, but our default on immediate is digital.

Can you fabricate a complete denture in Valplast?

We cannot. There is too much shrinkage in a full palate case. Valplast is limited to partial dentures, flippers, and unilaterals.
