Sharpening Service
We offer dental instrument sharpening services for scalers, curettes, explorers, some operatives, periodontal knives, and surgical scissors. Sharpening is the process of removing small amounts of metal from a dental instrument blade or tip to maintain a sharp edge. An orthodontic instrument can only be sharpened if there is sufficient metal remaining.
- Normal repair work of 20 or more instruments will be completed within 15 business days. Special work orders of less than 10 instruments repair time may vary.
- Orders received without specific instructions will be retipped per handle stamps. Customer incurs the cost of rework due to unclear instructions.
- New and retipped instruments are guaranteed against defects until the first use or thirty days from the date of invoice, whichever occurs first. Sharpened instruments are not guaranteed.
- Instruments lost or damaged in the mail can be replaced with Dental Fix instruments at our trade-in price.
- Regular return shipping charge will be added to customer invoice.
- Charges incurred by Dental Fix for incorrect shipping information (such as address, name, suite #) will be charged back to customer.
- Minimum order charge is $50
