🦷 Essential Dental Supplies for New Clinics: A Startup Guide

Launch with confidence. Stock smart from day one.

Starting a new dental clinic is exciting, but it comes with a long checklist. From staff and software to patient chairs and sterilizers, the setup process is intense. And one thing you don’t want to overlook?
🛒 Stocking your essential dental supplies.

Whether you’re opening a private practice, dental suite, or mobile clinic, having the right disposables and PPE from day one ensures smooth operations, safe procedures, and strong patient trust.

At Aurum Care Co., we’ve helped countless Canadian clinics launch successfully. Here’s your go-to supply guide to get started right.

📦 1. Disposable Gloves (Nitrile or Latex)

Gloves are a non-negotiable for any clinical setting. For dental procedures, choose:

Nitrile gloves – Strong, latex-free, chemical-resistant

Latex gloves – Comfortable and biodegradable (ideal for non-allergic patients)

We recommend keeping multiple sizes in stock and ordering in bulk to reduce cost.
