Fresh entrepreneurs, wheel re-imaginers, and over-the-edge dental products are what makes these independent businesses so crazy good. You need some of this stuff, seriously, and you won’t find all these suppliers listed anywhere else but here. You don’t even have to ask Schein or Patterson to move over because there’s nothing getting in the way of you having good products at good prices from real people in dentistry.
Don’t see your product listed or know of something that should be here but isn’t? Then you MUST stop what you’re doing and send us a quick email or tweet or something before you leave this page. Thank you for your word-spreading part in keeping your supplier in business. Because how else are you going to continue getting the best of the best?
