Some of the labs I use and recommend:

Jurim Dental Studios
(Adrian is one of the best- I use for many of my full mouth cases,
veneers, pressed ceramics):

M32 Oral Design Studio Hakjoo Savercool is a pleasure to work with and has created the ceramics for many of my finest cases. I consider her to be one of the best ceramists around. She is especially adept with pressed ceramices. http://www.m32ods@yahoo.com

Great Lakes Orthodontics
(many good products relating to occlusion and I use them for most bite appliances): I like to use a Flat Plane upper occlusal splint made with Durasoft material (hard on outside and a bit softer on the inside) at the completion of all my reconstructions and/or cosmetic cases. They should be fabricated on models that are mounted on a semi-adjustable articulator:
