Top 3 Must-Have Accessories for Dental Assistants in 2025

Dental assistants are the backbone of any practice—and having the right tools makes all the difference.

Here are 3 game-changing accessories that should be on every dental assistant's radar in 2025:

1. NomadStrap – Ergonomic X-Ray Strap
Designed for handheld X-ray units like the NOMAD Pro 2, the NomadStrap supports your arm and shoulder during imaging. Less fatigue, more control, and improved workflow—it’s a must-have for any radiography-heavy practice.

2. Smart Badge Clip Timer
Track exposure times and sterilization protocols right from your badge with digital timer clips. Some even sync with practice management software for seamless tracking. We love this one from Instadose®VUE Dosimeter

3. Antimicrobial Utility Pouch
Keep your essentials (gauze, mirror, pens) close and clean with a pouch that’s easy to disinfect and wear throughout the day…our go to is Safco

With these accessories, you’ll be better equipped to handle anything your day throws at you—efficiently and comfortably.
