major trend within the dental material market is the continual improvement of delivery systems, which are tailored towards reducing material waste. As these developments help dentists scavenge materials, the need to purchase additional material is reduced. Newer technologies such as capsules/unit dose dispensers significantly decrease the amount of wasted material for each dental procedure.
The average doctor reports more than 100% waste when using dental cements. Capsules are one of the most expensive delivery methods, their prevention of waste can significantly lower the amount of permanent cement refills purchased by dentists. The same principle applies to direct restoratives with unit dose capsules and auto-mix machines, to dental impressions with cartridges and auto-mix machines and to bonding agents with unit dose capsules and lollipops.dental laser
Core build-up materials are also threatened by waste prevention due to innovative delivery systems such as the pre-mixed pens and single component materials. Additionally, improvements of the traditional anesthetic delivery systems partake in waste prevention, and are expected to further innovate in the coming years.
