Triton portable delivery system
ASI Dental Specialties is releasing an upgraded version of the Triton Model 90-2025 self-contained dental unit. The new series includes many improvements, including a high-flow vacuum system with 20% greater suction, a faster canister-purging system and a tandem water bottle system with one water line disinfection cartridge.
The Triton portable dental delivery system features an internal air compressor and vacuum system. It requires only an electrical outlet to operate, which makes it ideal for portable dentistry or for expanding an office without trenching for plumbing.

ClearArc aligners
Western Dental & Orthodontics recently announced the launch of ClearArc orthodontic aligners. The product was rolled out to 233 California offices in January and to offices in Texas, Arizona and Nevada in February.
Every ClearArc patient is evaluated for treatment in a personal exam by an orthodontist. Dr. John Luther, chief dental officer at Western Dental, says this quality control measure helps ensure that patients are suitable candidates for aligners before spending money on treatment. ClearArc uses ClearWear, a technology designed to make the aligners effective with fewer, if any, attachments. They are also stain-resistant and virtually invisible.

Clear Precision Buttons
Following the success of Precision Buttons from MAO by DynaFlex, Drs. Christopher Cetta and Richard Kaye have developed a new aesthetic attachment for wearing elastics with aligners. Clear Precision Buttons are made of a translucent composite/ceramic hybrid and universally fit canines and premolars within the aligner cutout windows.
The patented design has a maximized surface area for retention and is contoured to fit comfortably at the gumline. These features not only offer an aesthetic choice but also reduce unnecessary emergency visits for patients while saving doctors valuable chair time.
