What is Dental Innovations?

Dental Innovations is a network for independent dental practice owners. We aggregate the purchasing of members to negotiate arrangements with service providers on our member’s behalf.

I am only a small single dentist practice, is it worth me joining?

Yes it is. In fact most of our members are single dentist practices.

Does Dental Innovations have a trial membership?

No we do not offer a trial membership. The reason being that when you join Dental Innovations we provide you with a comprehensive stock order report for FREE which costs $500 otherwise and you also receive a welcome basket of new products from Dentsply for $350 and some other incentives to come on board as a member and to try out the service.

How will joining help my practice?

When you join Dental Innovations you become part of the largest commercial network of dentists in Australia. Having more than 750 dentists enables Dental Innovations to negotiate directly with our supply partners to achieve savings of 15-20% off market prices on consumables. You will get access to

• Reduced Credit Card Merchant Fees through HICAPs. • Easy to use and actionable Stock Analysis Reporting to reduce inventory costs. • Discounted General & Business Insurance Premiums. • Exclusive member’s forum to learn about best practices and innovations. Your days are filled by helping patients - you don’t have much time left for the demands of running your dental practice.

How many members does DI have?

Over 750 members Australia wide and counting…. We have also launched in New Zealand in 2017 with 50 members.

What is the criteria to join and how do I join?

You need to be a dental practice owner in Australia with an ABN/ACN number to join Dental Innovations. To join you can fill the forms in our joining section or call 03 9698 0200 or email us at [email protected]

Am I locked into using only Dental Innovations service providers?

Not at all. For example, Henry Schien Halas are not one of our service providers and in Australia they have exclusive access to the GC range of products. You still have free choice to use another service provider and are not locked in to use only our supplier partners.

What if the membership is not working for me or if I sell my practice?

There is no joining fee or any exit fee for the membership. If the membership is not working for you or you decide to sell your practice all you need to do is email us at [email protected] to exit the membership.

What products do Dental Innovations sell?

With 50 specialised business services and member networking, the Dental Innovations Network assists dental practices to increase their bottom line profitability. One of our key service is our sophisticated Online Ordering system where our members can order dental consumables from our 10 partner suppliers

Apart from this from handpiece repairs to ordering large equipment such as autoclaves and intra oral cameras we have a vast range of services we offer our members. One of our most intangible service is our member networking as we understand that running a dental practice in your community can feel a bit isolating. Dental Innovations connects you to a network of more than 600 independent dental practices across Australia. We can help you connect with other dentists to share ideas and best practices through our private online forum, in-person networking events and webinars. These interactions can help you develop your skills and take your dental practice to the next level.

I have not heard of Dental Innovations previously. Are you new? And who owns Dental Innovations.

Dental Innovations has been around for almost 20 years. It is a family business established in 1997.

The genesis of Dental Innovations came from independent research conducted by Merv Saultry in the 1990s. He’d been asked by a group of dentists to research commercial practises for the industry, and what he found was shocking. Dentists paid vastly different prices for the same products, and it was clear that smaller independent dental practices paid too much for dental supplies.
