Product Bites Script – October 8, 2024

Welcome to Product Bites a weekly podcast from Dental Products Report providing you with a rundown of recently launched and updated dental technologies, materials, instruments, and everything else you might use with patients or while running your practice.

I’m your host for this week, DPR Editor Kellie Nock, and on this week’s podcast we’ve got 3 new products with launches from Great Gums and BioHorizons.

So let’s get to it and learn about these newly launched dental products.

First up…

First up, Great Gums One. This toothbrush just launched in the U.S. and is priced under $30. What makes it stand out? It features patented bioelectric technology. Instead of traditional brushing, it creates an electromagnetic field around the bristles, sending out 10 million waves per second. This helps remove plaque from those tricky areas—whether it's braces, implants, or dentures—without relying on physical movement.

Then, there’s Great Gums Clinical Grade, available for pre-order. It’s priced at $200, but this model packs more power for patients who need enhanced care, for example post-surgery recovery or those dealing with gum disease. It’s rechargeable, comes with 3 brush heads, and offers the same bioelectric technology for gentler, more effective cleaning.

Finally, we have SmartShape Healers from BioHorizons. These new healing abutments are designed for scannability and esthetic improvements, making the workflow smoother. They offer site-specific configurations for gingival contouring and are compatible with both traditional and digital impressions. With 6 anatomical profiles and a 4-step workflow, these healers ensure better tissue contouring and reduced chair time, making them a solid addition to any dental practice.

That does it for this week's Product Bites from Dental Products Report. Stay up to date on all the latest dental product news by visiting dentalproductsreport.com/newdentalproducts.
