New Additions to the Continu Alcohol Free Anti Microbial Disinfectant Range

Following the ongoing success of its Continu alcohol free anti-microbial disinfection range, which delivers fast, effective, safe, long lasting, user friendly infection control, Nuview has responded to customer requests and HTM 01-05 to launch a number of unique new products for the dental market.

The Continu combined Surface Cleaner and Anti Microbial Disinfectant offers a 2-in-1 solution that removes dirt or grease while simultaneously disinfecting the treated area to ensure surfaces are both clean and decontaminated. This unique solution saves time by reducing surface cleaning and disinfection into a single process and avoids the cost of buying two separate products. The new 2 in 1 formulation is available either as a trigger spray or wipes.

Nuview’s new Anti Microbial Dental Impression Mix also saves time by disinfecting impressions at source using Continu to mix the alginate, rather than water, inhibiting fungal growth for weeks without any shrinkage or distortion. Each bottle comes with sticky labels to comply with HTM 01-05.

Nuview now also provides wall mounts for its popular alcohol free hand sanitising foam and soap range which are kind to skin whilst achieving outstanding disinfection. These products are now also available in touch free dispensers.

Good for Patients, Good for Practices

The demand for dental work is growing at an unprecedented rate due to an ageing population living longer; younger generations who continue to need preventive services and maintenance of existing dental work. In the meantime the UK faces high unemployment and the NHS is struggling to meet demands.

Munroe Sutton has developed a patient referral plan that is affordable and effective. Unlike insurance, discount plans have no annual limits and no health restrictions. Referral Plan members are granted access to a large network of participating dental care providers that have agreed to offer their services at a discounted fee, while the practitioner gains access to a large pool of potential patients.

Some of the many benefits Dentists receive from the Munroe Sutton plan are:

• Access to many potential new patients
• Support with marketing their practice through the scheme, which encourages patients to visit the dentist regularly and helps them afford desirable treatments such as aesthetic dentistry.
• No long term commitment. Dentists can cancel their participation with a simple 30-day notice period.
• Patients pay each time they visit the dentist
• Affordability for necessary treatments for patients and an increase in treatment plan acceptance rate for dentists.

Simple, effective and tried and tested by millions of Americans. Munroe Sutton offers increased profitability for UK dentists with no extra outlay.

Can You Benefit from Incorporation?

The move from Sole Trader/Partnership to a Limited Company can be an exciting, if somewhat apprehensive time. Incorporation can be a far more sensible, durable and long-term plan to reduce tax than risky ventures such as ‘tax-schemes’, which can prove to be disastrous for many dentists.  Understanding all of your options, receiving trustworthy advice and working with a tailor made plan that suits your needs is crucial.

Lansdell & Rose can help you with the complexities of Incorporation and offer you a personal, bespoke service that suits you and your practice.

A Limited Company can hold many benefits including:

• Limited Liability – shareholders are limited to the capital they introduce
• Enhanced commercial and patient credibility – Often seen as more credible than sole traders
• Taxation benefits –Taxation can often be reduced by up to 50%, depending on personal and business circumstances!

All benefits and implications of Incorporation and your unique circumstances will be thoroughly discussed to enable Lansdell & Rose to devise a personalised blueprint to ensure a successful transition.

By offering you expert advice at every step and providing you with a bespoke, reliable service, you can be assured that the team at Lansdell & Rose is delivering correct, suitable advice that will help you and the future of your business
