High-quality dental instruments are a guarantee of the effective work of the dentist and the safety of the patient. Each tool that a doctor works with must meet the highest requirements and meet international quality standards. In this case, not only treatment, but also dental prosthetics, as well as any surgical interventions, will be successfully completed.
In every field of dentistry - be it therapy, endodontics, surgery, implantology - certain types of dental instruments are used.
How to choose good quality dental instruments
Price
High-quality dental instruments are distinguished by the price, which, in turn, depends on the material from which the instruments are made. So, for example, dental instruments made of stainless steel are highly wear-resistant, withstand repeated sterilization and, accordingly, serve for a long time. Whether it is worth buying inexpensive dental instruments is a rhetorical question. But only if we are not talking about the purposeful acquisition of instruments that do not require sterilization, that is, disposable ones.
Brand
In this case, you should be even more attentive to the quality of the selected product. When choosing, you can rely on the name of the manufacturer and, again, on the cost. Such an approach to business is guaranteed to provide you with a reputation as a true professional, and the patient will feel great both during treatment and after it.
Production material
But what else says about the quality of dental equipment? If we recall cutting tools - the role of which is very significant and great in dental practice - then, of course, it is worth mentioning abrasive materials. They are both natural and artificial. The coarseness of diamonds always guarantees a high speed of preparation of the tooth surface. This advantage allows the doctor to easily and quickly cut silicone, apply longitudinal grooves, open cuvettes, in general, perform the required amount of work without much effort.
Strong alloys such as titanium and stainless steel, as well as steel with chromium, nickel and molybdenum, are a real guarantee against corrosion.
Sterilization
Such instruments must necessarily withstand the necessary sterilization treatment of various types (steam, air or chemical). This factor is a direct proof of the high quality of the products.
Comfort
It is convenient for a doctor to work with instruments when they do not slip out of the hands, have a good grip, smooth contours that do not stick into the hand. The comfort component is the most important criterion when choosing dental instruments.
