Aseptico.

Aseptico's about page says Doug and Edyie Kazen established the business in 1975 as North Pacific Dental, a small sundries producer. In 1981 Aseptico was formed as an aseptic specialty branch and introduced a sterile water delivery system. Between 1981 and 1985 the company says North Pacific Dental became Aseptico Inc. The technology page prints the headquarters as 8333 216th St SE, Woodinville, WA 98072, and says equipment is developed, manufactured, sold, and supported there.

The about page says the mid-1980s portable line included the AseptiMini ADU-10, which Aseptico calls the first manufactured mobile dental delivery unit on the market. It dates the first dental electric motor to 1989 and the first rotary endodontic motor to 1995, then the AEU-20ITR in 1999 with torque reduction and auto-stop-reverse. Those firsts are Aseptico's historical claims.

The same page says a US military relationship began in 1998 and led to portable systems named TaskForce, Transport III, and Express, plus portable sinks. In 2007 Aseptico says it introduced an all-in-one motor for restorative dentistry, oral surgery, implantology, and rotary endodontics, used in the 6000 and 7000 series, and also introduced the AMC-20 mobile dental cart, later followed by the AMC-25 and AMC-15. An FDA 510(k) letter for the AMC-20, K101332, cleared that cart for general dentistry and endodontic applications and used the Woodinville address.

The technology page says the AEU-7000 is an implant and surgery motor with endodontic settings and calls it the only American-made implant motor. That exclusivity line is Aseptico's. The about page also names a newer GO Ultra portable delivery system. Export coverage is stated as more than 125 countries on the about page.

Aseptico suits a surgical suite, a mobile clinic, or a practice that wants a US-built implant motor or a self-contained cart. Implant motors are compared on the implant motor guide.

Delivery systems in a fixed operatory are a related category. See the delivery system guide. Dedicated endo motors are on the endodontic motor guide.

An AMC cart is a roll-around operatory. A 7000-series console is a motor. A GO Ultra or Transport system is a portable delivery package. Buying one does not include the others unless the quote says so.

Aseptico's 'first' and 'only' lines are useful as company history and as the way the manufacturer positions the product. They are not a substitute for the 510(k) indications or for the implant drill protocol.

Use 8333 216th St SE, Woodinville, WA 98072, from the technology page. The 2011 FDA letter for the AMC-20 also used that street. Ask which products are still built there and which accessories are third-party.

Military field models and civilian carts can share parts or they can diverge. Give the model number, not the brand name alone, when you order a handpiece or a fuse.
