| 1. We use the sheath on our vacuum systems for "Source Point" collection of dust- The sheath fits onto the handpiece and stays within 1/2" of dust generation, providing a consistent level of collection. With the sheath there is no goose neck to constantly move, and no assistant needed to hold a separate hose. Unlike side mounted tubes that only collect from one side of the bur, the sheath's tubular design surrounds the bur with a powerful vacuum making it about twice as effective. |

| 2. Our system is dry- Our concept is to capture and dispose, not spray and expose. When these products were first introduced we designed our own spray system, and quickly discovered its disadvantages. Spray systems are messy and hard to adjust for effective function. More spray cools the nails better but requires more clean up, and sends more mist into the air. Less spray requires less cleanup, but liberates more airborne dust. Invariably you clean up a wet pasty mess and send mist particles into the air to be inhaled later, or create dry dust to be inhaled later. If you cut the patient, aerosolized bodily fluids can be sprayed into the work environment, which is a serious infection risk. Also, the spray solutions contained astringents like alcohol. Pumped into the air, astringents cause irritation of the sinus membranes. Finally, while the water system is more comfortable for the patient, we decided to maintain our focus. It was more important for us to maintain the comfort and health of those within the work environment. You! |

3. We're in Independent Studies- Compared against similar products the Model 100 A Nail Dust Extractor Rated #1 for the highest consistent level of collection. Since the study was completed several of the compared products no longer exist or have been modified. We no longer know how to compare against the modified ones. We do know that the products that uses the side mounted tube removed the electronic auto-circuit to increase profit margin. This made it less user friendly, and did not enhance its function. They claim that removing the auto-circuit reduced downtime, we claim they just did not know how to make it.

| 4. We make and service what we sell- Who knows the product better than anyone else than the people who build it? If there is problem with your extractor or drill you can speak directly to a technician. At seminars, our salesman are also technicians. Having a technicians at your disposal means answers with substance, and swifter solutions. |

5. We make noise- That's right. Every dust extractor requires air flow to evacuate dust. Greater air flow means more collection. Combined with the Sheath, our powerful vacuum motor is what enables our Nail Dust Extractor to collect more dust than any other system out there. If its too quiet it just doesn't work. And, why spend money for a product that doesn't do what you bought it for? Also, our extractors are small enough to fit into cabinets further reducing noise, as well as, reducing office clutter. Most people are quite happy having the Nail Dust Extractor right by their side, and can still enjoy a normal conversation. |
