The Question That Should Decide Where You Go
When you need a crown, a bridge, a denture, or an implant restoration, you have two options. You can go to a dentist who understands conceptuallywhat needs to happen — and then sends your case to an outside lab technician they've never met, in a facility they've never visited, and waits weeks for the result. Or you can go to a dentist who has both the medical credentials and 30+ years of hands-on experience actually designing, fabricating, and finishing the restoration himself.
Dr. Daniel Meader holds both a Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) and a board-level Certified Dental Technician (CDT) credential — the only dentist in South Carolina with both. He doesn't just plan the work. He does the work. Every crown, every bridge, every denture, every implant restoration — designed and built by the same person who examined your mouth, understands your bite, and saw exactly what needs to happen.
Of hands-on fabrication experience — well beyond the 10,000 reps it takes to master the craft.
Typical crown turnaround vs. 2–3 weeks at practices that outsource to a lab they've never set foot in.
No miscommunication between dentist and technician. No interpretation errors. No shipping. No remakes.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a referral to see a specialist?+
No. Because Dr. Meader performs restorative, cosmetic, and lab work himself, most procedures that other offices refer out are handled in-house — implant restorations, full-arch dentures, complex crowns, and cosmetic bonding. Only oral surgery (wisdom teeth, jaw surgery) and orthodontics are referred to trusted local specialists.
How does the in-house dental lab speed up treatment?+
Traditional practices ship impressions to an outside lab, adding 2–3 weeks of wait time per restoration. Our on-site lab means Dr. Meader designs, fabricates, and adjusts crowns, bridges, and dentures himself — often completing work in days rather than weeks, with fewer appointments.
What insurance do you accept for these services?+
We accept most PPO dental insurance plans including Delta Dental, MetLife, Cigna, Aetna, United Healthcare, Guardian, and BlueCross BlueShield. We also offer CareCredit financing and in-office payment plans for uninsured patients. A written estimate is always provided before treatment begins.
Can multiple services be done in one visit?+
Yes — having the lab on-site means we can often combine procedures that other offices would split across multiple appointments. For example, a filling and a same-day crown adjustment, or a cleaning with a cosmetic bonding touch-up. We'll build a treatment plan that minimizes your time in the chair.
What makes Complete Dental Care different from other Columbia dentists?+
Most dentists conceptually understand what a restoration needs to look like — then they send the case to an outside lab technician to actually build it. Dr. Meader is the only dentist in South Carolina who is also a board-Certified Dental Technician (CDT), with 30+ years of hands-on fabrication experience. He doesn't just plan the work — he designs, fabricates, and finishes every crown, bridge, denture, and implant restoration himself. The difference is having someone with both the credentials and the mastery from actually doing it, thousands of times over.
