NOTES:

  • This week, Dr. Glenn Vo spoke with someone near and dear to the Nifty Thrifty community: Brittany Dirico, the national sales manager at DryShield. If you’re not familiar with the company, you’re in for a treat.
  • DryShield is an all-in-one isolation system that outperforms traditional methods like rubber dams or cotton rolls.
  • Brittany began as a dental office manager, so she knows exactly how valuable DryShield is within practices.
  • The device is available in disposable and autoclavable versions, but Glenn highly recommends the latter for its convenience. Not only is it more environmentally friendly, but it saves you money!
  • The hosing accessories and adapter piece are also autoclavable!
  • However, both options serve a purpose. Brittany says the autoclavable DryShield is great for everyday treatments, but some dentists prefer the disposable when it comes to more invasive procedures.
  • If you’re looking for a simple, user-friendly product, look no further. DryShield installs in seconds and can be easily integrated into any practice. Hook it up to your Hvac system, and you’re ready to go.
  • Glenn knows firsthand how helpful DryShield is to increasing productivity. “I can work faster and it makes dentistry so much more enjoyable!” he says.
  • Your patients will feel the same way— “I’ve had treatment done with this myself,” Brittany says, “It makes all the difference in the world, even from the patient’s side.” You can count on DryShield to make treatments as comfortable as possible.
  • DryShield isn’t just about convenience, however. It serves an important role in limiting aerosols to help keep your staff and other patients healthy (not to mention, your face and hair will be aerosol-free, too).
  • If you’re new to DryShield, Brittany says their starter kit has everything you’ll need. You’ll get the full system including the adapter, all the hosing accessories, all the different mouthpiece sizes, and a choice between autoclavable or single-use pieces.
  • If you want to outfit additional chairs, you can also buy the adapters separately (and use your own hosing if you want!). Anything else you may need is available a la carte.
  • DryShield recommends you sterilize the autoclavable piece up to 50 times for maximum efficiency. Using this piece saves you over $150 compared to the competition!
  • DryShield’s customer base spans far and wide—it’s not just for GPs! Everyone can use DryShield, from your assistant and your hygienist, to any specialty including pediatric dentistry, oral surgery, periodontology, and more.
  • Whether you’re new to DryShield or a longtime fan, you’re gonna want to take advantage of their latest amazing deals, including the Nifty deal!
  • Now, when you buy one DryShield, you get one free! The same goes for their adapter pieces. As if this deal weren’t awesome enough, there’s no quantity limits—if you wanna buy five systems, you get five more for free!
  • When you buy a DryShield starter kit, you get an isolation system free. Glenn emphasizes how great this deal is for startups and any practices struggling with staffing.
  • For those who’ve already decked out their chairs: there’s a major deal on mouthpieces waiting for you! When you buy four boxes of mouthpieces (autoclavable or single-use), get one box free! You can mix and match any size.
