ADVANTAGES • Affordable
• Requires no expensive chemicals
• Quicker sterilization process
• Ideal for use in developing countries
• A future contributor to disease control across the
globe
VIDEO • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ved0K5CtmsU
Our goal is to inform practicing
dentist and dental hygienist of this
new technology that will allow
OUR GOAL them to work more efficiently and
help people across the world
without access to dental care in the
near future
