Hinman Meeting 2012: Celebrating 100 Years

At the 2012 Hinman Dental Meeting in Atlanta, GA (March 22-24, 2012), Summit Dental Systems brought the heat to Hotlanta, showcasing both our Newport Left/Right Swing package and Biscayne E.L. Hygiene package to a burgeoning crowd of dealers, doctors, hygienists, and more.  Our Zipclave sterilizer was on display as well, putting on a show for anyone and everyone curious about one of the fastest sterilizers on the market today.  Coming off a successful Chicago Midwinter Meeting, the Hinman was another chance for doctors and dealers alike to see the quality and craftsmanship put into our equipment.

Many of the visitors took advantage of our show specials by either purchasing the equipment on display at the booth or placing a future order utilizing our tradeshow discount.  If you’re going to CDA Presents Meeting in Anaheim be sure to stop by our booth (#664) to speak to our team members to learn about our equipment and how we can close deals with our CDA Meeting specials.

Chicago Midwinter 2012: SDS & All That Jazz

Exhibiting at this year’s Chicago Midwinter Meeting (February 23-25, 2012) was a monumental success for Summit Dental Systems.  While creating new relationships with doctors and dealers across the globe, we also strengthened previous ones with demonstrations of our dental operatory line and Zipclave sterilizer.  People that stopped by our booth were given an extensive overview of the operatory packages we had on display, as well as the Zipclave sterilizer, by our chief technician Will Pettis and sales associates Matthew Hittel and Isabelle De Lima. 

Many of the visitors took advantage of our show specials by either purchasing the equipment on display at the booth or placing a future order utilizing our tradeshow discount.  If you’re going to the Hinman Meeting in Atlanta be sure to stop by our booth (#1046) to speak with our team members (Will Pettis and Matthew Hittel) to learn about our equipment and how we can help close deals with our Hinman Meeting specials. 

SDS Technical Visit to Connecticut

On February 16-17, 2012 our chief technician, Will Pettis, ventured out of South Florida for a visit to the state of Connecticut to meet with some of our dealers and provide training for their service technicians.  Over the course of his stay Will, joined by our territory rep Paul Snell, conducted thorough installation training as well as training on the Zipclave sterilizer at Dart Dental (in Hartford, CT), Patterson Dental (in Rocky Hill, CT), and Henry Schein Dental (in Wallingford, CT). 

At Dart Dental, Will met with the founder Art Stengel, equipment specialist Bob Schaefer, and several of their technicians.  At Patterson Dental, Will met with the branch manager Mike Baker, service manager Don Annino, and equipment specialists Mark Planckon and Kevin McGonigal. At Henry Schein Dental, Will met with the branch manager Steve Hoyt and equipment specialists Ron Stan, Bill Finkel, and Chris Anderson.  At their respective showrooms, Will was able to go over technical and sales training for the Zipclave sterilizer, as well as operatory package installation training for Dart Dental.  Having our chief technician at their facilities to answer questions on our Zipclave was a great learning experience for them as well as a wonderful opportunity for us to show them our company’s capabilities and the quality of our equipment.

Successful meetings and visits such as this provide our dealer network with a better understanding of who SDS is, what our product is like, and how we can continue to strengthen our business relationship together.  We appreciate the time Dart Dental, Patterson Dental, and Henry Schein allocated for this meeting and look forward to a long, healthy relationship with our dealers in Connecticut.

If you are an authorized SDS dealer and are interested in having a training seminar conducted in one of your branches, please contact your SDS territory rep or our main office to schedule a visit.

Fun in the Sun with Atlanta Dental

Summit Dental Systems extended an invitation to members of Atlanta Dental’s sales force to spend a few days in sunny South Florida at the SDS Headquarters in Fort Lauderdale, FL from January 26-28, 2012.  The salesmen were able to obtain hands-on experience with all SDS equipment and get personally acquainted with the SDS staff and how they can help generate many new sales opportunities in their area.  A key focus of the meeting was to have the salesmen familiarize themselves with the newly introduced Zipclave steam sterilizer—one of the fastest full-size semi-automatic autoclaves on the market today. 

 

SDS Technical Visit to Patterson Dental, Boothwyn, PA

Here at SDS our technical department works hand in hand with the equipment technicians of our authorized dealer network—whether they’re on the phone with a tech who’s out in the field or having local techs visit our showroom for some hands-on training, our technicians strive to make the work for our dealers’ equipment techs as smooth and painless as possible.  From January 17 to the 19th, our head technician, Will Pettis, visited the Patterson Dental branch in Boothwyn, PA to give a technical training seminar on our equipment line.  Joined by our territory rep Leon Rapport, Will was able to meet with the branch’s store manager, Jeff Drugoth, operations manager, Albert Kendle, and their entire team of skilled technicians.  

We took this opportunity to detail the installation procedures, discuss troubleshooting, showcase improvements made to our product, and to answer any questions the field technicians may have had about our equipment.  This meeting also coincided with the installation of one of our Daytona operatory packages on their showroom floor.  This gave us the opportunity to have the equipment technicians have hands-on training with our equipment under the guidance of our head technician.         

Successful meetings and visits such as this provide our dealer network with a better understanding of who SDS is, what our product is like, and how we can continue to strengthen our business relationship together.  We appreciate the time Patterson Dental allocated for this meeting and look forward to a long, healthy relationship with their branch in Boothwyn.

Zipclave Sterilizer Now Available!

Simply Amazing. With a 10 inch chamber and closed door drying, the Zipclave sterilizes and dries instruments in approximately 23* minutes or less.

Summit Dental Systems introduces another reliable workhorse in the field of dentistry: the Zipclave Sterilizer.

Using steam sterilization, the Zipclave works faster due to the instant-dry system, a process that takes less than 2 minutes to produce dry material at the end of each cycle. With a 3 year limited parts warranty, the Zipclave provides the peace of mind one needs to run their practice efficiently.

New Additions to the SDS Family

SDS is pleased to announce the three newest additions to the SDS family - the Viulux LED operatory light, the Biscayne E.L. chair, and the Biscayne Fixed Base chair.

With lower energy consumption and longer life expectancy, our newly developed Viulux LED operating light will not only illuminate smiles with brighter, cooler light but will also have you smiling with your savings. Using powerful Philips Lumileds LEDs, Viulux provides you with a precise light pattern with uniform intensity. This allows for focused visibility of the oral cavity and eliminates any discomfort to the patient’s eyes. Viulux’s cooler, whiter light meets your need for more precise color matching without generating radiant heat in the operative field.

The Biscayne E.L. and Biscayne Fixed Base chairs deliver quality and value ideal for hygienists, orthodontists, and dentists. With a clean look and simple design, the Biscayne E.L. and Biscayne Fixed Base chairs are practical for any dental setting. Economically priced without sacrificing quality, these chairs are a viable option for dentists who want a functional chair they can rely on for their practice. As with all SDS products, these electro-mechanic chairs are covered under our industry-leading five year warranty.
