GAP Australasian Dentist Sept Oct 2020

12 Australasian Dentist products Henry Schein and Radic8 become exclusive partners Air purifiers for dental practices Dental offices greatly benefit from purifying their indoor air with an Air Purification System (APS) by reducing the transmittable contaminants. Air purification and filtration systems, which clean by constantly drawing out polluted indoor air and exhausting clean filtered air into each room are the recommended solution. The Radic8 photocatalytic oxidation chamber has multiple UV-C lights surrounded by chromed nano titanium tube filters and polished with activated carbon. The UV-C light reacts with the photocatalytic surface intended to create oxidants for the reduction of air contaminants making the air healthy and energetic; and helps combat afternoon fatigue. The Radic8 product portfolio offers a unique solution for all air purification requirements in the dental clinic. The Plug and Play units facilitate easy and fast installation by user and filter change is easy without the need of specialised engineers. All Radic8 products have been developed to ensure almost noiseless operation between 38 and 49 dB.

With a passion to provide better gum care for households, they began bringing in SYSTEMA toothbrushes to Australia and introducing it to dental surgeries. SYSTEMA is Japan’s number-one oral hygiene brand*, a product of Lion Corp, Japan. It’s a toothbrush that delivers gentle brushing and care for the gums. New Products from Healthygums Dentists approve of the SYSTEMA Gum Care toothbrush. Dental surgeries have been of our main distribution channel since we began this journey.

It’s all in the bristles. u It’s the proprietary super-tapered soft and slim bristles that are 0.02mm at the tip ie. 1/10 the diameter of regular toothbrush bristles. u Bristles that can penetrate deeper into the gum line to effectively remove food particles that causes periodontal disease, delivering a high level of oral cleanliness. u Bristles are made from high-grade PBT (polybutylene terephthalate), more durable than ordinary nylon bristles.
