Summit Oral Care Offers Solution to P&G's Oral-B® Supply Chain Issues
Dental Professionals and Consumers search for options to minimize the impact.
As a leader in the oral care product market, Oral-B®, part of the Procter & Gamble Company, is experiencing severe supply chain issues that directly impact dental professionals, retailers, and consumers. “Supply chain disruptions are upending the provision and delivery of a wide array of goods,” states Proctor & Gamble.
According to U.S. Census data and Simmons National Consumer Survey (NHCS), 83 million Americans used Oral-B Glide floss in 2020. Now, millions of dentists and consumers that rely on Oral-B® oral care products to perform daily oral hygiene functions are in search of a solution.
Summit Oral Care prepared in advance for these disruptions, by increasing product development and establishing diverse logistical protocols. Through this proactive effort, Summit Oral Care has ample supply of oral care products available for immediate distribution throughout the United States. For example, Summit Oral Care Soft Slip Floss, a floss product that compares to the Oral-B® Glide Floss, is readily available for distribution, The Summit Oral Care Soft Slip Floss product is not manufactured or distributed by Proctor and Gamble owner of the registered trademarks Oral-B and Glide.
What does the supply chain crisis mean for dentists?
In an article published by the New York State Dental Association (NYSDA), Burke Spielmann, general manager at Henry Schein subsidiary TDSC.com, explained that“US dental clinics had been, on average, spending 5.5% to 6.0% of their revenue on dental supplies before the pandemic, this spending has increased to 8.0% to 9.0%.”
Fear of running out of stock and delays caused by supply chain bottlenecks. Dr Chris Salierno, Chief Dental Officer at Tend, told NYSDA: “We are at risk for seeing new waves of supply delays and price increases as long as our global supply chain is stretched thin.”
Jorge M. Gomez, VP and CFO at Dentsply Sirona, told analysts in October: “It’s hard to predict how long the supply chain issues are going to last because, again, this is not something unique to the dental industry.” He added, “We are taking a lot of actions to minimize the impact.”
