Welcome to this week’s episode of DPR Friday. I’m Thais Carter, Director of Content for Advanstar Dental Media. One of the things I love most about our annual Top 100 is the way in which it helps us step outside of our editor bubble and get a sense of the products that we think are cool, but what captured your attention.

Welcome to this week’s episode of DPR Friday. I’m Thais Carter, Director of Content for Advanstar Dental Media. One of the things I love most about our annual Top 100 is the way in which it helps us step outside of our editor bubble and get a sense of the products that we think are cool, but what captured your attention.

The Top 10 Most-Viewed products are just that – the products launched over the past 12 months that generated the most views and clicks at dentalproductsreport.com. This year’s list includes:

  • Kavo Dental’s KL 703 Short Motor
  • The A-dec LED Operatory Light
  • Bisco’s TheraCalLC
  • Practicon’s FlossBow Ortho Flossers
  • The NuSmile Pediatric Crowns, Anterior Crowns
  • Acteon North America’s Air-N-Go Polisher
  • VOCO America’s Quick-Up
  • The Great Lakes Ortho OSA Demonstrator
  • GC America’s MI Varnish with Recaldent
  • And the Bien-Air iChiropro Implantology System

As you can see, our user’s interests range from preventive care to Implantology – quite the spread. And that’s what we love!

In terms of those products that we, as an editorial team, felt merited a second look, you can look no further than the Top 10 Editor’s Choice list. That esteemed group includes:

  • Zimmer Dental’s Trabecular Metal Dental Implant
  • The Glidewell Inclusive Tooth Replacement Solution
  • Ultradent’s UltraCem
  • Onpharma Onset Mixing Pen
  • The Carestream CS 1600
  • GrindCare
  • Digident’s Smile Guide Touch
  • The 1-800-DENTIST Reputation Monitor
  • Sirona Dental Systems’ Omnicam
  • And the 3M ESPE True Definition Scanner

Before we sign off, I wanted to plug one of this year’s new Top 10 List – The Top 10 How-Tos. We know that technique articles and how-to articles are some of the most read and most valued by readers year to year, so for 2012, we’re re-running the 10 that generated the most interest over the past 12 months. You can find the complete list at dentalproductsreport.com.

And on that note, we’re out of time. For more on the latest products and industry news, don’t miss DPR Friday next week, and every week.

Thanks for watching, and have a great weekend – and an early Happy Hanukkah!
