Australasian Dentist Magazine May June 2021

Category 46 Australasian Dentist F ollowing its launch just over six months ago Handpiece Traders is flying high with its success amongst dental professionals. Owner Troy Garvin, who you may know as the face of sister company Dental Drill Solutions for handpiece repairs, can’t be happier with the response so far. “From my time visiting thousands of dentists around Sydney and interstate I’ve had the opportunity to really chat to the dentists themselves, get to know them and find out what equipment they are lacking, what they actually need and the budget constraints they have to work with,” he says. “Many of the smaller country practices don’t have the high turnovers and cashflow that larger city practices have so the owners/dentists/practice managers have to be more frugal with their dollars. “In open conversations many have said that they would definitely buy second-hand handpieces if there was a reputable company around that sold them. So that’s what I have created with Handpiece Traders, using DDS as the backbone for its quality repairs. We are the biggest reconditioned handpiece company in the world!” One happy customer is Dr Allan Lam, Brookvale Dental in Sydney. He has made purchases online on several occasions. “I have purchased seven handpieces from Handpiece Traders and everything about the process was fantastic. The handpieces arrived within a day after immediate despatch and the team at Handpiece Traders kept me in the loop at every checkpoint. Just like in dentistry, communication is very important and these guys are on point with emails and phone calls to keep us informed about the process. The handpieces received were pristine and I’ve ended up purchasing more products from them including ultrasonic tips, spare couplers and endo handpieces. They’re a pleasure to work with and value your time. I have no hesitation in recommending them if you value your time and customer service.” Handpiece Traders now have a dedi- cated phone line 1300 220 300 for incom- ing calls from any dental professional or student who may be hesitant on the cor- rect make or model to buy, or have a few questions to ask. The Handpiece Traders team is always happy to make sure you are buying the correct product that will do the right job whilst also fitting onto the equip- ment you are currently using. “I’ve had doctors tell me that they’ve been sold handpieces from other companies with wrong end fittings for their couplers, or optic when they don’t have optic lines – absolutely useless! It is my duty through Handpiece Traders to ask all the right questions to ensure that once you receive your handpieces you will be able to use them straight away without disappointment,” said Troy. With their relentless marketing and exposure on social media, you’ll find it hard to go past the round black and white HT logo, Troy and team assuring you they will be here for the long haul.
