Our history

Built over two decades.

1999Beginnings

It all began over 20 years ago when our founder, Tom Dippel, started working for his parents when he was just 16 years old.

2008Branching Out

Tom officially began MDL and started building his own clientele. Within the first few years, the business had grown to accommodate 5 full-time employees.

2016Specializing

We partnered with Straumann to expand access to guided surgery services throughout the Midwest — at the forefront of a still-developing technology.

2021Established

MDL purchased its current headquarters in Newport, Minnesota, and has been filling that space with the latest technology and a highly talented team.

TodayFuture

We’re proud of our history and excited about what the future holds — continually improving workflows and turnaround times, and persisting as pioneers in the dental industry.
