In dentistry, it's easy to get caught up in the daily whirlwind of appointments and patient care. Yet, amid the chaos, overlooking the maintenance of your dental equipment can have repercussions that extend far beyond the immediate moment. Neglecting maintenance can, quite literally, affect your finances.

Many issues that maintenance keeps on top of can’t be seen, but that doesn’t mean that the ramifications of neglecting maintenance aren’t serious. These images show the state of components that have received no maintenance, versus ones that have. The state of these components could easily have led to an overflowing spittoon or even a flooded surgery floor.

Without maintenance, how can you be sure of the condition of internal components?

An annual service contract might seem like an expense, but in reality, it's an investment in the longevity of your equipment and the financial well-being of your practice. Regular maintenance identifies and addresses issues before they escalate, sparing you the headache of unexpected breakdowns and the budget strain of major repairs.
