We recently asked our evaluators to select their favorite products in all kinds of categories for our “Evaluators’ Choice” issue, published in the June 2017 issue of Dental Product Shopper. One company’s products were repeatedly voted as top-notch in the industry.

It shouldn’t be a surprise that 6 of Ultradent’s products were named as favorites by hundreds of dental professionals. As a respected leader in the dental industry, Ultradent takes pride in their company’s 5 core values - integrity, care, quality, innovation and hard work – which drive their success.

From whitening to curing lights, Ultradent’s innovative products are preferred by our evaluators. Let’s take a closer look at their favorite Ultradent products.

ETCHANT

Ultra-Etch 35% phosphoric acid etchant is considered the industry standard, according to DPS evaluator Michael Teitelbaum, DMD, FAGD, who is president of the Greater New York Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry. “It was developed by a dentist for us, and it shows,” Dr. Teitelbaum said. “You put it on, it stays right there, and [it] does its job. You rinse it off, it goes away…so simple, yet so perfect.”

CURING LIGHTS

With a slim wand that allows optimal access to all areas of the mouth, VALO was the curing light of choice. There are 4 varieties of the popular VALO curing light – the original VALO, the VALO Grand with an extra-large 12 mm lens, VALO Cordless that operates on 2 rechargeable lithium ion phosphate batteries, and the VALO Ortho.  

SEALANT

Strength and wear-resistance are the hallmarks of UltraSeal XT, which is Ultradent’s light-cured, radiopaque, fluoride-releasing composite sealant. As a pediatric dentist, evaluator William Lieberman, DDS says that having a dependable sealant material is an absolute priority. With UltraSeal XT, he says, “We get consistency and excellent long-term results.” It’s available in 2 formulations – UltraSeal XT plus and UltraSeal XT hydro

WHITENING

Three of Ultradent’s Opalescence whitening products took home top honors. Opalescence Boost, formulated for in-office power bleaching, is a chemically-activated 40% hydrogen peroxide gel so no light is needed. Opalescence PF is a take-home gel offered in 10%, 15%, 20%, and 35% carbamide formulations, and Opalescence Go, delivered in pre-filled disposable trays, is perfect for those who prefer at-home tray whitening treatments.
