(101-7004-GR) ...........................Each 199.99 Nick DeSalvo, Sales Account Manager USA & Canada, Renfert USA SANDSTORM EXPERT Q: What should a lab look for in terms of a warranty on abrasive sandblasters? A: The life of a sandblaster depends on several factors: quality of design, routine maintenance, and the manufacturer’s commitment to servicing the unit. Renfert stands behind their sandblasters by offering a 3-year warranty on all of its models. Q: How can you extend the life of a sandblaster? A: When choosing a sandblaster, think about its design, and how easy or difficult it will be to maintain its optimal working performance. Blockage and clogging within the blasting lines are not only frustrating, but they can incapacitate the sandblaster. Renfert’s sandblasters feature replaceable cartridges within the blasting tanks. Regular cleaning of blasting lines will ensure consistent flow of blasting media. This maintenance, along with the use of readily available spare parts, can extend the life of the sandblaster significantly. Q: How important is maintaining a consistent air/sand flow rate? A: A consistent air/sand flow is vital to achieving optimal results. The design of the mixing chamber is crucial to ensuring an optimal air/sand mix, providing reproducible, high-quality results. Because of its mixing chamber design, the flow of material from a Renfert sandblaster remains consistent regardless of how full the tank may be, with minimal to no preor post-flow leakage. A high-quality and economical blasting system for moderate-to-heavy production. Low-maintenance media flow system virtually eliminates wasteful downtime and lowers maintenance costs. • “Easy Fill” tanks hold 4 lb. of media • Exclusive non-clogging flow design with automatic air/sand purging system • Magnified viewing window reduces eyestrain and improves viewing area • Blast-proof, maintenance-free cabinet • 3-year warranty Complete unit contains: 1 precision tungsten carbide tip plus 1 adjustable air pressure & 2 handpieces. crystal embedded tip, foot pedal control, 2 tanks, 50/100 μm.

Perhaps the biggest differentiators among dust collector models, according to Gregg Miller, Sales and Marketing Manager, Vaniman, involve the maintenance required for various types, the amount (and type) of dust that the equipment must remove from the air, and the noise that the dust collector adds to the work environment. Brush versus brushless motor. A key to dust collector maintenance is the motor: is it a brush-type or brushless motor? The former often requires regular replacement of the motor brushes, and this may be easily performed at a lab with full-time maintenance personnel. If the brushes are not replaced, the motor will eventually fail. A brushless motor can perform for long durations with relatively little maintenance. Silence is golden. “Noise level must be considered when choosing a dust collector,” advised Miller. For instance, labs that need dust collectors with greater amounts of suction generally have larger motors, which can, in many cases, generate greater noise. Will the technicians who need a dust collector be in one large room or in a number of smaller rooms? Does the lab need a centralized system or one dust collector for each work station? Will the dust collectors be operating everyday, all day? This is a very complex ques- tion for most labs, said Miller. “Certainly, there is no best answer for everyone’s laboratory.” Clearing the air. Another critical aspect of maintenance involves the filtration system. “If the filter is not changed as frequently as necessary, airflow to the motor is decreased. This can shorten the motor’s life,” Miller stated. This is one reason why “pre-filtration” can be a good idea. A pre-filtration unit can be added to any dust collector, which “cuts down the need to change the filters.” “The quality of the air in the workplace is determined by the ability to capture the dust in the areas it’s being created,” said Miller. “What people really want in a dust collector is something that they can plug in, hook up, not mess with it too much, and that’s not too loud.” 2011 Small Business Tax Benefits Decrease your taxable income and increase cash for your other needs!

M A K E S Y O U R P R A C T I C E P E R F E C T® FURNITURE/LAB DESIGN 5 Steps to Successful Laboratory Design Dental Arte Inc. Planning a comfortable, efficient, and profitable place in which to work is not difficult. Whether you are planning for a new lab or expanding your current facility, you will need to follow some basic guidelines, which we have provided for you. Zahn’s lab-planning specialist is ready to answer all of your individual questions with regard to laboratory design, cost, financing, and installation. Handler 1. Understanding Your Present and Future Needs Before you can weigh the pros and cons of purchasing one piece of furniture versus another, you need to gather all of the data that will help you in your selections. Our Laboratory Planning Specialists will take you through this process. They will help you with your priorities and assist you when speaking with a sales specialist. This will make it possible for you to receive the precise answers needed for you to make the right decisions. NevinLabs 2. Creating a Concept of Your Work Space Shopping for lab furniture is a little like shopping for a new car. It is helpful to have a clear understanding of what your needs are, even before you consider individual manufacturers and their products. The next step is to make a rough drawing of your working space and identify the way work should flow in your new lab. If you have not selected a location for your new lab, this may help you in choosing an adequate facility. Prepare a drawing of the way you would like to see your lab (e.g., partitions, size of rooms, work flow, etc.), and let Zahn assist you in creating a computer-aided design through one of our manufacturer partners. 12 dentallabproducts September Supplement 2011 Dr. William Bennett III, Orland Park, IL from NevinLabs dlpmagazine.com NO POSTAGE NECESSARY IF MAILED IN THE UNITED STATES BUSINESS REPLY MAIL FIRST-CLASS MAIL PERMIT NO. 658 MELVILLE NY POSTAGE WILL BE PAID BY ADDRESSEE ATTN: ZAHN MARKETING E-130 HENRY SCHEIN INC. 135 DURYEA RD.

Your accountant, banker, or Zahn Dental can be valuable advisors in this area. Zahn Dental offers a variety of financing packages for both the short and long term, and will be happy to provide details. Remember: more information about your requirements up front will greatly reduce unexpected costs. Zahn Dental will be happy to calculate a “Best Rate” on any and all furniture, equipment and merchandise for your lab. Daymude Laboratory, Glendale, AZ by NevinLabs 5.

For example, silicosis is a debilitating, sometimes fatal, yet preventable occupational lung disease caused by inhaling respirable crystalline silica dust. Blasting, grinding, and polishing these restoration materials are activities performed daily by technicians in the dental laboratory. As a result, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has focused on effective dust collection and removal as a requirement for the safety of lab technicians and other lab employees. 16 dentallabproducts September Supplement 2011 OSHA urges dental laboratories to take the following basic safety steps: • Use local exhaust ventilation (hoods) properly to minimize the generation of dust and fumes when working with beryllium-containing alloys • Use HEPA vacuums to clean equipment and the floor around the work area • Prohibit the use of compressed air to clean parts or working surfaces • If a wet mop is used for cleaning, do not leave a film of dust on the floor after drying • Monitor employee exposures to airborne beryllium dust and fume, using personal sampling techniques on a regular basis, to ensure that beryllium exposures are below the OSHA exposure limits and are as low as feasible • Limit the number of workers who have access to areas where beryllium-containing alloys are being cast or fabricated • Use appropriate respiratory protection Another well-known method for containing airborne dust particles is the use of a fine spray of water droplets at the point of dust generation. In Europe, workplace regulators have taken an extra step in dust avoidance and elimination: They require the use of water spray in dental laboratories to hold down dust particles, making it easier to keep the air clear in the workplace, according to Arthur Mateen, Branch Manager of Bien-Air USA. It makes sense to take the above precautions but also to look for water spray features on the equipment that generates the dust. That is one of the reasons Bien-Air built a large water reservoir into its STS Trimmer handpiece. “Bien-Air’s lab handpiece with water spray, the STS Trimmer, is an industry standard in Europe,” said Mateen. “With the introduction of a larger water tank and integrated water spray control, we are confident this unit will become a standard in U.S. dental labs.” dlpmagazine.com TIPS FROM THE EXPERTS A Benefit of Ownership in 2011 by Keith Drayer, Vice President, Henry Schein Financial Services Dental lab owners have been provided with historically signifi- are subject to different rules; again, please check with your cant tax incentives through 2011, making this the right time advisors).

(709-6535-GR)..........................Each 184.99 (118-2221-GR) ...........................Each 939.99 TIPS FROM THE EXPERTS MUST-HAVE ACCESSORIES FOR YOUR LATHE “The Handler Red Wing lathe has been a part of the dental lab since the 1920s,” said Rick LaDuca, President of Handler Red Wing International. “Some of our working lathes date from the 1950s,” but this very cost-effective piece of equipment is not very useful without the accessories needed to perform its intended dental functions—polishing and grinding of prosthetics. The problem is that many purchasers don’t realize that most lathes require attachments. “The majority of the dental community polishes with pumice,” explained LaDuca. “In order to do that, dlpmagazine.com you need a buffing spindle to hold the buffing wheel, on the left side of the lathe. In addition, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration requires a splash hood. Those two left-side attachments allow you to polish restorations with pumice and other polishing compounds.” The right side of the Red Wing lathe is used for dry operations (cutting, grinding, sanding) and will also need attachments, such as burs and mandrels. The user will also need a chuck changer; to increase productivity, the Red Wing has a Quick Chuck Changer, which enables users to switch 3/32” and 1/4” burs and mandrels while the lathe is running. “For example, if the operator is cutting a denture with a cutting disk,” said LaDuca, “he or she can then put on a sanding sleeve without stopping the motor (by pulling down a handle, which opens the jaws of the chuck to allow exchanging of burs).” LaDuca pointed out that purchasers would be wise to consider a version of the lathe that comes complete—with all of the attachments needed for the right and left sides. This version, such as Handler Red Wing model 16B, means that all the accessories and safety equipment come with the basic lathe. He favors this model, because it counters any concerns that the customer is missing the right attachment, and “it pays for itself in no time.” September Supplement 2011 dentallabproducts 25 MODEL TRIMMERS MODEL TRIMMERS MODEL TRIMMERS DRY MODEL TRIMMER ROUTER • Easy to change and clean grinding wheel or abrasive disc • Front swings open—one thumb screw does it • Full-radius perforated, no-splash water spray • Adjustable aluminum calibrated work table • No-stall motor • Tray to hold models, large grinding area Produce high-quality, precise models without water: no need to connect to water supply or drain, and it can be placed in any available space.

Although not running full time, it must be ready for use when needed. The last person leaving the building usually turns it off. Seems simple, but steam cleaners are sent back to the factory for preventable repairs. We asked Nicole Palladino, Sales Manager, US & Canada, Kerr Dental Laboratory Products (makers of Touch Steam), what she views as the top 3 mistakes that will shorten the life of a steam cleaner. 1. Using nondistilled water: “The minerals and contaminants in the water vary by re- gion, and can be recipe for disaster in wearing out the unit’s components prematurely,” said Palladino. “You must use only distilled water in the unit. This single action will extend the life of your steam cleaner regardless of make or model.” 2. Running it 24/7: For safety purposes and to reduce wear and tear on all steamers, units should be powered down at the end of the night, and powered up at the beginning of the work day, and not left unattended. Steamers should not run overnight or when the lab is closed. Palladino cautioned that the resulting heat build-up can cause premature wear in the heating element, cap, and cap gaskets, and shorten the life of the fuses. 3. Twisting the gun handle: The gun handle (where the steam stream emanates) and hose contains wires, regulators, and tubing components. Not too dissimilar to a gas station fueling hose, which contains wires and regulators and is not meant to be twisted excessively, Palladino said, “The gun handle and hose of a steam cleaner can be damaged with even a little twisting.” She also offered an important tip: People think that if the steam cleaner cap leaks a bit on top, the cap, which is expensive, will need to be replaced. The problem is more likely the gasket, which is inexpensive. “Changing the cap gasket regularly can save money and prolong the life of the unit.” MAX Water Level Indicator MIN MIN EMPTY TANK INDICATOR READY (117-0279-GR)......Ea. 1 year warranty $499.99 WHOLESALE DENTAL MANUFACTURING & SUPPLY Phone: 877.258.7545 | Fax: 562.404.1224 www.wholesaledentalsupply.com dlpmagazine.com September Supplement 2011 dentallabproducts 31 VACUUM-FORMING UNITS VACUUM-FORMING MACHINE TRAY-VAC™ PROFORM™ Top designed for better heat dispersion, slotted rear post for perfect location over model.

Bruce Leibick, Sales Director, for Buffalo Dental Manufacturing Inc, emphasized that the two top priorities in vibrator construction is to remove these bubbles, but do it without generating a great deal of noise. Typically, a flask of plaster will be sitting on top of the vibrator, “and it is important that the vibrator include a lip to help stabilize the flask,” said Leibick. Rubber mounts with suction cups also help stabilize the vibrator, and reduce sound levels. When asked about the other important features that a vibrator should have, Leibick commented, “Solid construction, durability, and it helps when they’re made in the USA, because that usually means better quality control.” The durability of Buffalo’s vibrators is remarkable, he said. “In the dental practice environment, many dentists end up selling their vibrator with their practice.” This may be attributable to Buffalo’s 35-year experience in manufacturing vibrators for the dental market, Leibick pointed out.

September Supplement 2011 dlpmagazine.com GENERAL MERCHANDISE CONT’D TIPS FROM THE EXPERTS THE POWER OF HOT LIGHT By James E. Gervais, President and CEO LaserStar® Technologies Corporation Dental laboratories are increasingly looking to laser technology to enhance their quality and craftsmanship. Laser micro-welding systems are an excellent alternative to traditional torch, electric, arc, oven and furnace practices. This technology produces a sharply focused beam of hot light that melts a very small area of metal and can be used to join similar or dissimilar alloys. The welding process can be performed quickly (normally in milliseconds) and does not scar or blemish the welding surface. By adjusting the laser’s beam diameter, a smooth, near-polished flnish can be achieved with the laser. Very little heat is generated at the weld point, so users can weld 0.5 to 1.0 mm away from complicated, intricate dental appliances, including heat-sensitive assemblies. Lasers can be used for many laboratory assembly and repair applications, including partial denture reconstruction and repair, implant and precision attachments, universal bridge connection, fabrication, margin repair, and correction of miscasts and titanium applications. Laser welding reconflgures the molecular structure of dissimilar metals at the point of welding, allowing the two separate alloys to become one. In some laboratories using laser welding, the torch has been eliminated along with fiux and solder, which also addresses some health and safety issues. Scrap rates are reduced, and studies have shown that the weld from a laser is considerably stronger than a solder joint. IWELD® LASER WELDER iWeld® is the highest peak power laser welder in the marketplace. Operators beneflt from pinpoint accuracy, increase the range of laboratory assembly and repair applications, and minimize the potential hazards of heat damage. The resulting weld is considerably stronger than a traditional solder joint. LaserStar’s well-known reputation for high-quality, efflcient laser systems, make the iWeld® an excellent value. Ideal for gold, platinum, palladium-silver, cobalt chrome, nickel-chrome, titanium, and many other dental alloy applications Contains system contains: iWeld 60 Joule Unit, Clearview 15X Microscope, Argon Regulator, Custom Shipping Container, and Domestic Freight.
