Posted by OSUNG Dental USA on

Efficient instrument handling isn’t just about workflow—it’s about protecting your team, your patients, and the tools that keep your practice sharp. Enter Osung USA’s EFS8 and EFS8L Dental Instrument Cassettes: two high-quality, stainless steel solutions that help dental clinics streamline sterilization and procedural readiness. Each cassette supports infection control, ergonomics, and easy access—yet their subtle differences make them ideal for distinct workflows.

🧰 EFS8 Cassette: Safety First with a Lid

🧺 EFS8L Cassette: Streamlined & Accessible

The EFS8L cassette takes a more open approach—literally—with a lidless design that allows for quicker access and a larger instrument fit.

🦷 Which Cassette Fits Your Workflow?

If your practice involves frequent instrument transfers between sterilization and clinical zones—or handles surgical instruments that demand extra tip protection—the EFS8 with a lid is your go-to. For faster chairside access or longer instruments that need a flexible fit, the EFS8L open cassette is hard to beat.
