Dental Products Report 2023 Spring Selection – The Finals

Article

Here it is, the final match with just two products left in the running for the title of Dental Products Report 2023 Spring Selection.

From 64 down to just a pair. What a ride it's been as dozens of dental innovations have seen their run end, and just the K2 Mobile diode laser and the Proxeo TWIST hygiene handpiece remain.

Each of these products started as unheralded 15th seeds amidst a field of the most popular dental product innovations launched throughout 2022. Round after round these two products have found popular support, and each won their respective semi-final match by a wide margin. Now they meet in the finals with a title on the line.

So who takes the title? Is it the the laser that brings power, convenience, and precision to any operatory? Or instead, should it be the hygiene handpiece that brings precision, comfort, and convenience to any operatory?

The final ballot is just below, and voting can also be done on our Instagram page.
