Why You Should Consider Purchasing Direct Brands

Did you know that there are high quality products made by brands that you may never have seen at your current distributor?

Direct brands might not be on your current buying list because they only sell directly to dentists or through GDA Plus+ Supplies. Some of these products are highly rated in the Clinician’s Report or in the ADA Professional Product Review—and the companies that make them prefer selling directly to consumers to keep their prices low.

At GDA Plus+ Supplies, you can find more than 60 direct brands. Here are three that come highly recommended:
