Suckdowns, meet the Ortho Ministar

September 23, 2011 By Trish Walraven 1 Comment

Fellow dental blogger Mike Barr has a new toy in his dental lab and wants you to get one, too.

No, not because he’s going to make any money from your purchase, but because he is a believer in sanity! This pressure-forming machine saves you time and anguish over the heat, droop, and noisy suck-down that you’ve just accepted as “this is just the way it’s done.”

So be sure to follow this link, read his extensive review and product comparisons, and watch the video that he’s produced. And if you’re not convinced that you need to get an Ortho Ministar, then maybe you’re too attached to your vaccum-former.

And we’ve all heard the stories about people who got stuck to their vacuums and had to go to the hospital to become unattached, so don’t get mistaken for one of those.

About

DentalBuzz explores rising trends in dentistry with its own slant. The speed at which new products and ideas enter the dental field can often outpace our ability to understand just exactly the direction in which we are heading. But somehow, by being a little less serious about dentistry and dental care, we might get closer to making sense of it all.

So yeah, a tongue-in-cheek pun would fit really nicely here, but that would be in bad taste. Never mind, it just happened anyways. Stop reading sidebars already and click on some content instead.
