Barden's dental bearings can optimise performance of handpieces in terms of longer life, quieter operation and lowered repair costs.
The Barden Corporation has launched a website developed to provide dental industry workers with information on its range of dental turbine bearings.
The site was developed to directly provide users and manufacturers of high-speed dental handpieces with details on how Barden's dental bearings can optimise performance of handpieces in terms of longer life, quieter operation and lowered repair costs.
Dental bearings operate in highly demanding environments.
Repeated sterilisation, the depletion of lubricant over time and the effects of operating debris often cause them to fail prematurely.
Barden's website explains how precise engineering and manufacturing processes have addressed these issues and resulted in the development of bearings which can significantly increase the length of handpiece warranties.
Improved shield designs retain lubricant more effectively and also prevent contamination of the bearing from operating debris, reducing wear on the bearings and increasing bearing life to up to four times that of traditional dental bearings.
Managing Director at Barden, Dr Graham Stirling said: "The quality of bearings in a handpiece is critical to its performance".
"We believe that at Barden we have created the suitable combination, a bearing with the high specification and performance of a super-precision product, while offering cost-effectiveness in this competitive market".
He adds: "Our aim for this website is to let members of the dental industry know that they don't have to settle for a standard bearing, there is a more efficient, high-quality alternative available".
With a bearing to fit almost every handpiece in the market, Barden dental bearings can be supplied direct to the handpiece manufacturer or to the dentist, as part of a regular handpiece maintenance routine.
Barden has close links with several handpiece repair services, where dentists can send handpieces for bearing replacement.
