3. Processing Tools and Accessories 

Carbide drill bits (high-speed tungsten steel, models TF-11/EX-21, etc.), molding materials, welding rods for centrifugal casting machines, welding flux, polishing cups, polishing brushes, resin polishing heads 

VI. Preventive Healthcare Supplies 

Used for daily cavity prevention, periodontal maintenance and patient education 

Fluoride gel, sodium fluoride toothpaste (Dole Fluoride), pit and fissure sealant, plaque indicator, oral protector (sports mouthguard), desensitizing toothpaste, home water flosser, dental floss (not just Meijia Wax Dental Floss) 

Use and Management Suggestions 

Certification compliance: Opt for products that have passed FDA, CE or NMPA certifications. 

Disinfection and sterilization: Reusable equipment must be sterilized by pressure steam, and the packaging must be intact with a validity period not exceeding 7 days. 

Material Traceability: Establish a detailed quotation list and approval system for material usage, enabling full-process traceability. 

Domestic substitution: In the fields of impression materials, resins, and cement, domestic brands have a significant advantage in terms of cost-effectiveness.
