Delivering a great patient experience often starts with a painless injection—and that’s where Septodont’s newest innovation, Buffer Pro, comes in. Buffer Pro is a breakthrough chairside buffering system that helps reduce injection pain and speeds up onset time for local anesthetics.

From diagnosis to patient experience, artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing the dental industry. While AI once sounded like a distant concept, it’s now embedded in tools dentists use every day—making practices more efficient, treatment more accurate, and patient outcomes better than ever.

The dental supplies industry is projected to surpass $9 billion in value, and for good reason—reliable, high-quality products are essential to running a safe, successful practice. But lurking beneath the surface is a growing threat that many dentists don’t even realize exists: the gray market.

For decades, dental practices have relied on sales representatives to manage supply orders—a relationship built on handshakes, lunch meetings, and personal service. But in today’s fast-paced, cost-conscious world, more dentists are reconsidering whether this traditional model still makes sense.

The rise of online dental marketplaces, like Supply Clinic, is transforming how practices source their supplies. These platforms offer greater transparency, better pricing, and a more efficient, tech-enabled experience—without sacrificing trust or quality.
