Top 5 Dental Specialty Products

Dentists today often provide patient care that covers much more than what most would consider general dentistry. Patients today expect their caregivers to deliver a wide array of treatments and often are more comfortable with their dentist than being asked to go to a specialist. 

The great news is products, and education to prepare general dentists to provide specialty care are all easily accessible. Here we take a look at the five most popular specialty care products of this past year.

NEO 

The size of a smartwatch, the NEO apex locator is reportedly the world’s smallest apex locator. The ergonomic NEO can be attached to the included finger ruler to always be within field of view. It can also be clipped to the included stand, the clinician’s sleeve or cuff, or onto a patient’s bib. Its easy-to-read color touchscreen is designed to be operated with a gloved finger. The Working Length Select function makes it simple to set the working length for the procedure being performed. Using 3-band multi-frequency technology, it is said to provide repeatable, best-of-class accuracy.
