Suppliers?? Who to go with?

[Andy40]

I am ing with Patterson Dental for my IPN teeth. They are now charging $10.00 shipping on every order. I am about to switch to Zahn. Does anybody know of any other Suppliers out there?

The fact that you are forced to use a big supply house is your problem. When Dentsply took the distributorship away from the smaller supply houses it gave the big boys too much power. I do not deal with ANY large scale supply houses for many reasons. I get better pricing, more consistent and quicker responses to email and just a feel of "mattering" to my supply house.

Dental Supplies - Waterpik, Denture Teeth, Porcelain Oven,

I would suggest looking for a new brand of teeth and give Nowak a chance, they stock a very large variety of quality teeth as well as economical teeth. No dentsply products which suits me fine.

I use Zahn and have been pretty pleased with them. That said, their prices can be bettered by shopping around.

Try myerson teeth Kenson, DB plus, Myerson specials. Great teeth and Nowak has them

First thanks thanks for the plug John. I have to jump in on this though, Jmichael do you feel that it is your job to shop around on prices only to make Zahn give you a better price? Shouldn't they lead with their best price first so you don't have to price check them constantly? Maybe that's just my way of thinking but I'm sure you guys have more important things to do then have to make sure you are getting good prices.

I strongly recommend Nowak Dental. I buy ALL my supplies from them.

It seems that Nowak is pretty popular here, I will have to check them out.
Shawn, I agree with your thinking, I will be in touch.

Strongly recommend NOWAK...we use them for all of our stuff..great, honest, family owned business who value their customers.

I have never liked dealing with Zahn/Henry Schein/ Ash Temple!! Patterson is not as bad, but here in Canada I have found Central Dental in Toronto to be good to deal with. They might be useful for those in North east states.
