Dental Chairs & Accessories

DENTAL CHAIRS:

The dental chair consists of an electrically operated, retractable patient seating chair and accessory elements such as a spittoon bowl, provisions for airotor and micromotor handpieces, operating light, foot control pedal, an assistant’s tray, dentist stool, x-ray viewer and other attachements. The dental chair has evolved drastically from when it was first constructed in the 1880s. Dental chairs with built in light cure units, LCD screens and intra oral cameras have been manufactured, incorporating all the essential and frequently used elements of dental treatment. The dental chair has controls for chair positioning which mostly are a combination of foot controlled and manual variants. These controls can be used to move the backrest of the chair forward or backward, and the dental chair as a whole, upward and downward. Chair positioning settings can be saved in certain dental chairs making it possible to set an ergonomic positon and come back to it even if there are changes in chair position during the course of treatment.   

Importance of the dental chair:

The dental chair, definitely is one of the most important parts of the dental office. It is the first thing that patients would notice once they step into the dental operatory. Dental chairs have been conventionally considered to a place of discomfort for patients. The doctor tries to reduce patient anxiety and fear of treatment, using communication skills and reading their mood through body language and active listening. The dental chair, however is the culmination of the scene setting. The chair has to be designed keeping in mind, patient comfort. That is the single most important criterion to consider before buying a dental chair.  If patient comfort is compromised it would be highly detrimental to the patients attitude towards treatment and the dentist. This is why, patient comfort has to be the main consideration while making a dental chair purchase. When the patient sits on the dental chair and feels comfortable, the response to treatment would have a highly positive response.

DENTAL AIR COMPRESSORS:

Dental air compressors, although not the most attractive piece of equipment in the dental office, have a huge significance in dental treatment. They compress the entering air, delivering them to air driven portion of the dental chair. The three-way syringe and airotor handpiece are examples of small equipment that use the compressed air produced by dental air compressors. There have been developments in the types of air compressors used in dentistry. The older versions consisted of oil which is used to lubricate the parts of the compressor. Studies have shown that this oil may serve as a breeding ground for bacteria and other harmful pathogens, if regular maintenance procedures are not followed. To compensate for this, oil free systems have been developed. These systems create clean compressed oil-free air.

SUCTION UNITS:  

Suction units in dentistry are used to remove saliva, fluids and other debris while performing dental procedures. There are two types of dental suction units, the high-volume evacuation system and the saliva ejectors. The HVE and the SE are placed close to each other in the dental unit. HVE is used in procedures containing larger amount of debris. Saliva ejectors are small and allow easier accessibility. Saliva ejectors are used frequently for daily procedures such as scaling and restorations. The high-volume suction is used in surgical procedures. Care must be taken to ensure prevention of bacterial colonization in the unit, tubing, valves and other parts of the suction unit. Patients must be advised to not wrap their mouth over the saliva ejector as it may with cause backflow of the contents inside the tubing back into the mouth.

CHAIR ACCESSORIES:

The parts of the dental chair are meant to be durable. However, certain events lead to deterioration of the dental chair parts. These maybe small elements such as micro switches, retraction valves and airotor switches or larger components such three way syringes, operating lights, foot pedals and others. These commonly used dental chair accessories have been grouped under this category. Other accessories such as stands for LCD monitors are also available. The LCD monitors can be mounted on to the dental unit, and used in conjunction with an intra oral camera.
