Darby Dental Supply.

Darby Dental Supply's about page says the company was founded in 1947 as a mail-order catalog in Brooklyn and is still family owned. Headquarters mail goes to 300 Jericho Quadrangle, Jericho, New York 11753. The privacy page lists phone 1-800-645-2310, email info@darby.com, and hours of 8:30 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. Eastern, Monday through Friday. The about page says Darby now offers more than 50,000 dental supplies plus capital equipment, software, staffing services, and technology.

Sales are restricted. The FAQ says Darby sells to licensed dentists and healthcare professionals with a business account in the United States or its territories. Ordering can be an open account billed monthly, with statements on the first and payment due on the 15th for the prior month, or a credit card. The about page says most of the country gets one- to two-day shipping. That is a logistics claim to test against your ZIP code, not a promise printed as a map.

The homepage groups gloves, infection control, anesthetics, and impression material as top categories, and it mentions private label. A distributor's private label is a Darby box around somebody else's manufacture unless the site says otherwise. Ask who makes the private-label glove before you switch a clinic that standardized a named brand.

An older Dental Country note tied Darby to Henry Schein. The current about page does not say that. It calls the company family owned and independent in its telling. Compare Darby with other distributors as distributors. Do not merge their accounts.

TechForce is the technology arm described in the FAQ: setup, network issues, and safeguarding data. Staffing services are named on the about page without a rate card. Treat both as separate contracts from the supply order.

Darby suits a U.S. licensed practice that wants one distributor for everyday supplies and a path to capital equipment and repair. General dentists are the core account. Specialties are in the FAQ's "numerous specialties" line. The office products directory is the manufacturer list. Darby is how many of those boxes arrive.

Impression material on the homepage is why the alginate guide is linked. Fluoride varnish is a standing hygiene purchase even when it is not a homepage tile. Use the fluoride varnish guide to choose the material, then ask Darby if that SKU is in the 50,000.

A laboratory that is not a licensed dental practice may not qualify. The FAQ limits sales to licensed dentists and healthcare professionals with an account. Confirm before you send a lab a Darby login.

Henry Schein, Patterson, and Benco are the other large U.S. distributors in this directory. Darby's public differences are the family-owned description, the Jericho base, the 1947 Brooklyn catalog origin, and TechForce. Service levels and prices are quote questions, not facts this page invents.

Manufacturers such as Pulpdent or SS White make a defined catalog. Darby resells across categories. A backorder at Darby is not the same event as a factory discontinuation. Ask which.

Private label versus the national brand is the comparison that changes clinical habit. If the glove or the alginate feels different, it may be a different manufacturer in a Darby box. The category guides still apply to the material class.

Open the account before you need an emergency box. The FAQ requires a licensed professional and a business account. Credit terms are monthly, due on the 15th, or a card. Taxes are extra. Mail payments go to a New York post office box printed in the FAQ, which is not the Jericho street address.

Equipment repair and capital quotes need the manufacturer warranty in writing. Darby can sell the unit and still not be the factory that honors a five-year compressor claim. Split those sentences on the proposal.

TechForce is optional technology help. Read what is included before you assume backups and breach response are in the supply account. Shipping in one or two days is the about-page claim for most of the country. Ask about your address, especially for heavy equipment that does not ride with gloves.
