As a dentist you spend 7 hours a day working with your dental chair. That’s 35 hours a week. 140 hours a month. 1,610 hours a year. Making the right choice when it comes to your surgery equipment is an absolute must. So to spend a couple of hours out of your schedule to visit a showroom and ensure you make the right equipment choice is a couple of hours well spent.

You need to consider what type of dentistry you offer? If you are offering more than routine drill and fill’s you may want to consider patient comfort, especially if you routinely conduct long treatments. In this case you may opt for Belmont’s luxury upholstery or A-dec’s sewn range which offer ultimate patient comfort.

Are you treating nervous patients? If so you may want to consider a 12 o’clock delivery system where the handpieces and instruments are positioned out of the patients line of sight, therefore reducing their anxiety.

Do you practice four handed dentistry? If so a continental system may be more appropriate, the Heka UNIC is designed to facilitate four handed dentistry perfectly. Read Herluf Skovsguarrd’s ergonomic report.  A-dec’s full range is also available with a continental delivery system making it well suited to this type of working.
