YOUR PEERS ARE RAVING ABOUT…

Remember your first few years in practice?  Choosing a location and/or associateship opportunity; settling family; repaying astronomical student loans or, perhaps, borrowing more money; deciding each month which bills to pay and which to delay with chances that you ran out of money before you ran out of month.  So it is with almost any new business undertaking whether a health care practice, a manufacturer, a computer service company, an oil company, etc.  So it was with Practicon.

Practicon was incorporated in September 1983; we’re celebrating our 32^nd anniversary this fall.  In those 32 years, we have never wavered from our mission of developing or finding practical innovations to make dentistry, i.e., your practice, better for your patients, more efficient and easier for you and your staff, more productive, and more profitable. 

The Fall 2015 catalog, print or online, is packed with 327 new products.  I would like to show each of them to each of you personally---impossible!  But I can highlight several that are already lining up to be stars according to the reception you and your peers are giving them.

• First let me tell you about an idea from a dentist/customer in Fayetteville, NC that was refined in design by our product developer, Brad Griffin, and is now earning the dentist a royalty.  Yes---you read right---we pay for creative, unique ideas and products that can be added to Practicon’s innovative product line.  Lock-On Saliva Ejector Valve Tips mean you’ll NEVER again have a SE valve tip come off right in the middle of a procedure!  Foolproof, installed in seconds using your fingertips, removed easily for sterilization, Practicon’s exclusive Lock-On S/E Valve Tips will fit your current SEs and stay in place until you pull them off.  Our customers are quickly pushing these small wonders to the top of our most-ordered product list.  Get yours at practicon.com, product # 70-39775.
  
• Finally!  Practicon has come up with a mouth prop that doesn’t block your line of sight or interfere with treatment.  The completely new design is strong, effective, and comfortable for patients.  See-Prop will quickly become the only mouth prop you use whether for hygiene, restorative, surgery, or digital scanning.  Read details and see sizes of See-Props Mouth Props when you visit practicon.com, product #70-39780.
  
• Odd to get excited about a pair of loupes---right?  Yes---but I am excited to tell you we’ve found some world-class quality loupes, CHF Series Galilean Loupes, for under $200.  So many of your peers are snapping up this bargain, you’ll want to try a pair too.  With the Galilean Loupes, you’ll find you can sit straighter, see clearer, and avoid eye strain.  You’ll be glad you shopped online at practicon.com, product# 71-13115, 71-13114, or 71-13113 depending on the strength of magnification you choose.  Or call 1-800-9505 to order from our friendly customer service representatives.
  
• Believe me! YOU CAN DO IT!  Do what?  Cut gutta percha quickly, cleanly and safely in the pulp chamber with one hand with one instrument.  GP Cut Gutta Percha Cutter, exclusively available from Practicon, will be one of the best additions you’ve ever made to your “tool kit”.  See details of this wonderful little instrument, GP Cut, at practicon.com, product #71-36210.
