Mike Swartz, VP Customer Relations
Mike is a natural leader at Diamondhead Lab. He has a passion for art and science,
which combines his strength for attention to detail. He believes that it is equally
important to prevent problems before solving them.
As an artisan with more than 20 years experience, his depth of knowledge began by being trained under the direct tutelage of Jon Archibald and Gordon Christianson. With his completion of apprenticeship with Archibald & Associates, he has devoted himself in developing a culture of high standards and excellence in his work. He has captured the value of solid communication and expectations in the dental field. He understands that his partnership and skills aid the patient’s overall health and individual smile and takes pride in exceeding those expectations along side the provider of care.
When he’s not in the dental field, he is on a sports field. He enjoys and takes pride in coaching his children on multiple competitive sport teams.
He chooses to continue his knowledge and expertise by attending seminars, workshops, and continued education events all over the country. Currently he leads a Spear Study Club where he has been recognized for his collaboration of business, sales approach, quality, esthetics, and high-end case capability. Diamondhead Lab empowers those in association with them to make the best-informed decisions for their own successful practices.

Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
