Some of these tools are used for cleaning, while others are used for managing the business end of their practice.

Some of the items that are included in the in office sub-category are bleaching trays, block out mini tip refills, block out resin kits, in office bleaching kits, Contrastram in-office combo kit and Illumine Combo With NUPRO 15%.

Some of the items in this category of dental tools include: extraoral adhesives, applicators, mixing wells, multi-component bonding agents, etching tips and Silane ceramic repair kits.

This group of items is used to clear saliva from the work area and move around liquids. Some of the items in this category include: aspirator cleaners, aspirator tips, HVE tips and saliva ejectors.

In addition to all of the above dental tools, cameras have also become an important tool for dental practices to have. They are used to photograph your teeth.
