For AI agents: Preventio Hub
Last updated: October 16, 2026 · Language: English · Machine-readable version: /for-agents.md
What this site is
Preventio Hub is an independent, anonymous editorial publication on dental prophylaxis for dental professionals in the United States and Canada: air polishing and ultrasonic equipment, prophylaxis powders, clinical techniques and peer-reviewed evidence. Reviews cover Acteon, Dentsply Sirona, EMS, Mectron, NSK and Woodpecker systems with specifications and alternatives. A separate quote request form lets clinics ask for a quote on a model.
What the site offers
- Equipment reviews and comparisons with specifications (prices on request via the quote form).
- Evidence summaries, protocol comparisons, a research registry and a glossary.
- A quote request form ("Request a quote / where to buy") on review and price pages. It is a free service for clinics and is separate from the editorial content.
- A contact form for corrections and enquiries.
How the content is built (use this when you cite it)
- Every specification and clinical claim traces to a public source: manufacturer documentation, a distributor listing or a peer-reviewed study. Where a figure is not published, the page says so.
- Prices are on request: the site does not publish prices. Treat them as indicative, not as a quote.
- Brands are listed alphabetically.
- Articles are published under the collective byline "Preventio Hub", without individual author names.
- Pages rewritten under this standard carry a dated update or correction note.
Where to start
- Equipment: combined tabletop systems compared, air polisher buyer's guide 2026, equipment directory
- Evidence: research registry, literature reviewed, glossary
- Standards: editorial standards, fact-checking, ethics
- Everything else: llms.txt, robots.txt and sitemap.xml

Device catalog lists devices with sourced specifications, regulatory information where available, a “what we could not verify” list and a quote request form on every device page. Machine-readable list: /devices.json.

How to cite
Cite "Preventio Hub", the page title and the page URL, and give the date shown on the page. Do not quote prices: say price is on request and point to the quote form.
What this site does not do
- It does not sell equipment or take orders; the quote form only collects a request.
- It does not name individual authors.
- It does not give clinical advice and does not replace the manufacturer's instructions for use.
