Chris Curtis, Owner and Operator of CC Dental Studio
"In 1976, I applied for a driver position at Ito & Koby dental lab while waiting for my editing position at Curtis Publishing that was planned to begin 3 months later. I started in prep, fell in love with the field and never left.
I have horses and dogs and a wonderful career."
Terri Noe, Logistics and Vice President of CC Dental Studio
"I got involved with the dental lab fulltime in 2003 and became a silent partner, as Chris continued to grow the business, the decision was made to join the team and I came in to help the team and to help with customer service. I am definitely a people person and enjoy the interaction with my team and our clients. I love deep sea fishing and spending time with family and friends."
Glenn Churchill, CAD/CAM, Implant Department
"In 1984 I got into dentistry through a friend's recommendation and began in metal finishing and polishing with crowns. I enjoy the flexibility of different jobs and responsibilities with what I do. It is always a joy to hear back from the doctors or patients with how happy they are with the work we've done. On a personal note, I have been involved with a musical rock band that was established some 35 years ago."
Scott Sawyer, Model Prep & Case, Intake Department
"I came into dentistry in 2009. I lived next door to a Straumann rep and he made working in the field seem exciting. Working in case intake and model prep has been a source of joy because I get to use my hands creatively. A fun fact about me, is my family can be traced in this country back before the American Revolution."
Candice Todd, CAD/CAM, Clinical, Department Float
"My career in dentistry began in 2002 as a dental assistant. I have assisted in general practice, orthodontics, oral surgery and became an EFDA. I transitioned to the dental laboratory and started at CC Dental in 2017, I absolutely love science and the shape of teeth. It makes me happy to see people get their smiles back and to be able to help get that done. In my spare time, I like to spend time with family and friends."
Art, CAD/CAM Department
"In 2000, I answered a help-wanted ad in the newspaper seeking someone who was familiar with a Dremel tool and could work with their hands. I had taken a jewelry making class and an instrument repair class while pursuing art and music degrees at university. The tour of the lab reminded me of both environments. With this job, I love the moments when we are able to restore or dramatically improve someone's confidence through their smile. I also play clarinet in a community band and I sing bass/baritone in a choir."
Bernadette, CAD/CAM, 3D Printing/Milling, Implant Department
"My journey in dentistry began during high school, working Wednesday evenings alongside my mom in a pediatric office. After graduating, I stepped into a full-time dental office position doing everything from front office support to sterilization. In 2008, I transitioned to the dental lab and never looked back. My favorite part of the job is milling and finishing full-cast restorations. My dedication is so permanent - I have a tattoo on my right arm depicting teeth, complete with a full cast crown and an implant."
Amy, Driver
"Through a providential series of events, I began working for Chris and Terri in 2025 as a delivery driver. Since then, I have been enjoying learning more about the dental industry. I have experienced my fair share of dental procedures over the years, so I appreciate the individualized attention and care that CC Dental provides with each case. In my personal time, I have my small laser business."
Chuck, Driver
"I worked for 33 years in international logistics, primarily in air export and retired in 2011. After spending most of my career in an office, I wanted my next chapter to be something that would get me out of the office. That led me to the dental industry, I worked as a driver for another dental lab and eventually found CC Dental Studio where I drive throughout Central Indiana. I really enjoy my interactions with the staff at different offices. In my personal time, I have always loved boating; these days spending time with my grandkids takes up the majority of my time."
Peggy, Stain & Glaze Department
"I began my career in the 1900's. I needed to choose between sitting behind a typewriter or using my creative talents in a dental laboratory. I had an opportunity to shadow a denture technician one after in 1978 and I have never regretted my decision since. I have been a ceramist my entire career and I love the daily opportunity to create a new smile for patients. I have retired three times and keep coming back for love of the teeth."
Sherry, Custom Shade Consultant/Ceramics Department
"In 1995 I answered an ad in the paper about metal working. They saw I had an art background and wanted me to try ceramics; that is when I fell in love with teeth. I love changing peoples' smiles. It's the best when I get post-op photos of a patient's smile to see the transition. In my free time, I collect rocks and geodes. I enjoy rocks so much, I made a jade colored tooth for one of our patients."
