Bormachina and other equipment for the dental office

The dentist's office should be equipped with the latest technology using all modern technologies.

A dental drill or installation is a specialized technique, which is equipped with dental offices for the provision of medical care in an outpatient setting.

Dental unit types

First of all, dental drills are divided into stationary and portable dental units.

1. The stationary is rigidly fixed in the office.
2. The portable allows you to move the machine through the cabinet, depending on the physician's convenience, when working with a particular patient. However, the movement of such a drill can be complicated by the restriction of the movement of the communications conducted to it.

Portable foremost Forced:

By the number of personnel for servicing the drill, they are divided into those with which only the doctor works, or a doctor and an assistant.

The tool box can be placed in different ways in such installations:

• on a mobile set-top box;
• on the built-in bracket;
• reinforced on a pantographic holder.

The latter looks less stable and aesthetically pleasing, while it has a convenient location relative to the doctor. Mobile consoles are the cheapest of all listed, and the brackets are the most expensive.

There are also different modifications available for the patient's chair:

1. First of all, this drive is .It can be hydraulic and electromechanical. Electromechanical drive is most convenient and reliable. It has the greatest popularity, while it has a higher price.
2. Less important, but one that can not be overlooked, are criteria : upholstery material, smooth running, type of armrest mechanism.

The drill is what started everything

The dental drill consists of several blocks:

1. The dental chair in the modern drill consists of a sitting place, has head restraints and footstools for the patient. This chair is equipped with a control unit and has a soft upholstery for the comfort of the patient. In addition, the upholstery of the chair is made of materials that can be sanitized after each patient. The doctor, more often by means of a pedal, can adjust position of an armchair for maintenance of the maximal access to the patient.
2. The lighting unit is located above the head of the doctor. Now in dental units two main types of illuminator are used: they are made with halogen lamps and LED lights. Often, the illuminators are equipped with air cooling. Most of them have the ability to adjust the brightness.
3. The doctor's block , also called a tool box, contains basically a drill, an air and water gun. Blocs of the doctor are completely different, and they determine completely the work of the dentist. Any programmable elements and machine controls are also included in the tool box.
4. The assistant's unit includes systems for evacuation of saliva, mud, water to the sewer. It consists of hoses and filter systems. It is located behind the spittoon and is often designed in such a way as to provide access of the assistant to the patient during the treatment.
5. Additional blocks .Different manufacturers equip their equipment with additional features and devices that serve the patient's convenience and expand the capabilities of the dentist.

Doctor's block

Among all the types of this installation unit, two are most common: with the bottom and top feed of the tool. Each of them has its own advantages and disadvantages.

The hose arrangement from above provides a mechanism for returning the tool to its place, preventing it from falling. However, in such installations, the sleeves are often short, which limits the ability to move the tool. In addition, with this arrangement, the oil, which sometimes flows out of the tools, is removed by itself draining down, which ensures less contamination.

With lower sleeves, the tool travels are wider, however, when the tool is returned to its place, it is necessary to ensure that it does not fall. This arrangement is more popular among doctors.

In addition to the doctor's unit, the following tools are installed if desired:

• turbine tip;
• lamp for photopolymerization;
• scaler;
• air-to-water gun;
• electrocauter;
• additional micromotors.

These tools are optional and depend on the desire and financial capabilities of the particular doctor.

Assistant unit

This unit consists of two main parts of the hydraulic unit and the aspiration system. The hydroblock includes a spittoon and a glass filler, the aspiration system basically consists of a suction.

The assistant unit can be equipped with additional elements and a remote control, and also can be placed on a movable bracket.

Bowl bowls are made of ceramic and glass and can be equipped with a swivel mechanism. Among them, the most popular ceramic.

Suction systems are injector and vacuum.

The injector suction system creates a flow of air, trapping air from a given volume. It consumes more power.
The vacuum system creates a vacuum, requires an additional installation of the separator.

Control pedals

Pedals can be equipped with a large set of functions and monitor the movement of the patient chair and the operation of tools.

Additional equipment of the dentist's office

• auxiliary table;
• screen for viewing X-rays;
• working chairs for doctor and assistant;
• in addition, the office is equipped with a desk for documentation, a wash hand basin, a quality exhaust system.

The additional equipment is the x-ray machine and the unit for cleaning the tartar by ultrasound. Also it is necessary to purchase devices for sterilization of the instrument.

Such devices are:

• autoclave;
• dry-fire cabinet;
• laminator;

It is imperative to have consumables for a year ahead before opening a dental office.

Portable drill Dental

Thus, the approximate price of equipment for the dental office can be from 15 to 30 thousand dollars.
The cost of such equipment is not cheap, but it is a necessary minimum to ensure the comfort and safety of patients.

There is always the opportunity to reduce the price, for example, to purchase equipment directly from the manufacturer, if possible, or to buy used dental drills.

In either case, the doctor must decide. Although sometimes it probably makes sense to choose a supported German installation than a new Chinese one. But in any case, its maintenance and repair will cost more.
