Dental Expenses | 2022 Dental Equipment Inflation

 Dental Expenses | 2022 Dental Equipment Inflation 

As you know, our goal is to be a transparent dental channel where we can learn and grow together as a profession. With that being said, we will discuss our 2022 dental equipment spend with Patterson, and also explain why we are willing to pay a premium for their dental products and service. Check out the videos and descriptions below, and please comment down below with what surprised you or what your dental group experienced this past year in terms of increasing dental materials pricing!  


As you can see in the videos provided, we spent over 1 million dollars on dental equipment and materials in 2022, and a majority of that spend was with Patterson Dental. Patterson is a huge dental distributor in the dental industry, and our rep, Ryan, has been providing sales and support to us for over 20 years! We are so grateful for him, as he is a wonderful resource that we rely on consistently. As you can see in these videos, our relationship with Patterson saved us from having to close for weeks after our McCordsville dental office has some pipes burst due to freezing temps.  Patterson was able to have a $11,000 vacuum system setup and installed in our dental office within less than 48 hours. That is an absolute miracle in this current supply chain, and one that we would not have been able to have without our 20 plus year relationship with Ryan and Patterson Dental.  

 

The US experienced a massive spike in inflation in 2021, and dental equipment was no different. For the first time ever, we crossed the 1 million dollar spend mark in just dental materials in 2021, and we expect that number to increase in 2022. However, as you can see in the videos above, out relationship with Patterson is worth it and we are so grateful for all that they do for us and our patients!
