Here I am going to give a list of instruments to start a dental clinic. This is a basic set of instruments that is required to start a clinic. I have also given my individual recommendations too (YDR Recommends). Of course, based on availability and budget you are free to choose any brand.
There is also a separate list of all the materials (consumables) required to set up your clinic, which you can find here.
