Dentis implants. An implant
with a tapered design, platform
switching, and it’s available as
both resorbable blast media
(RBM) and sandblasted, large-grit,
acid-etched (SLA) surface
treatments. I find the surgical
and prosthetic armamentarium
very straightforward, and the
built-in drill stops for each
available length provide a
strong safety margin. Also,
both the healing and prosthetic
abutments are designed with
a concave emergence, which
allows for thicker soft-tissue
and subcrestal placement of the
implants without impinging on
the gingiva and bone.
Saeshin implant motor. Great
design, very reliable and makes
it easy to create presets.
Dr. Kim headlight. A comfortable,
durable headlamp with
double light sources, which
helps prevent shadowing
while working. Comes with a
magnification lens mount,
giving the provider many lens
strength options depending
on the procedure.
Nikon D7500 camera. Ever
since I started my periodontal
residency, the camera for intraand
perioperative photos is
priceless. The close-up detail
is amazing and it aids in quality
because doctors can take
a picture, then zoom in and
assess their work. You can link
your phone through the Nikon
app and download photos
immediately for sharing or
editing as well.
Dropbox. I take thousands of
pictures, and organizing them
is a necessity. I’m able to do it
from my phone app, which is very
user-friendly, with fast download
time, or on my laptop, and can
access the photos at any time
from either
