The idea behind Chairside Market

Expensive decisions deserve more than a brochure.

We are building a practical research layer between dental practices, equipment vendors and the specialists who keep clinics running.

Chairside Market is designed to answer the questions that show up before a major purchase: What does it really cost? Who sells it? What is included? How has it worked for practices like mine?

The public catalogue is free to browse. Accounts add tools for dentists who are actively planning a purchase, including alerts, consolidated quote requests and member promotions.

The workflow

Research first. Contact vendors when you are ready.

01

Compare the market

Review product specifications, pricing ranges, available sellers and owner feedback without creating an account.

02

Build your shortlist

Create an account to save equipment and set a price target for the products you are watching.

03

Ask for real numbers

Send one complete quote request to each dealer carrying the product. Your information is shared only after you consent.

04

Share what happened

Review the equipment and service after purchase so the next practice owner has better information.

Review standards

Useful reviews need context and accountability.

Browsing never requires an account. Submitting a review does, which helps limit anonymous promotion and drive-by complaints.

  • One review per account for each product or service
  • Reviews are held for moderation before publication
  • Commercial relationships must be disclosed
  • Personal health information and patient details are not permitted
  • Vendors can flag factual issues but cannot edit a dentist's opinion

The current reviews are marked as sample content and exist only to test the design.
