Shamrock Dental

Handpiece Sales & Repair Specialists.
Overview
Because dentists had no alternative as to where to send their broken instruments other than back to the manufacturers, who make them pay dearly for the service not to mention an impossible turn-around time frame, several handpiece repair facilities opened their doors.

In 1993 Al Pollock and his son Steve realized the need and started their handpiece repair facility "Shamrock Dental Co., Inc." in St. Petersburg, FL.

Additionals
Shamrock Dental is in need of motivated, committed individuals to own their own business. We offer you the possibility of making a six-figure income from an 8 x 10 area of your home. Like many other businesses, the more accounts you have, the more money you can earn. At Shamrock Dental, we want to sell territories to people who are interested in making as much money as they can.

This is why our territories are sometimes two to three times as large as our competitors' territories. We try to keep our franchise numbers to a minimum, so that each protected franchise territory has an ample supply of dentist accounts. We even encourage you to enlarge your territory.

Why Our Franchise?
As a franchisee, we offer you the ability to buy parts directly from us. We have access to all manufacturers' parts and products, some of which are not available elsewhere. We buy parts in large quantities, which gives us the ability to sell individual parts to you at a lower cost than other suppliers. In addition, we offer a 5% discount on all parts and products ordered by our franchisees.

Shamrock Dental offers the most comprehensive training program in the industry. Training takes place at our headquarters in St. Petersburg, Florida, lasts a full two weeks, and encompasses everything including business techniques, customer support, hands-on repair training, and many other relevant subjects:
