Dental Equipment
EXPERT ADVICE:
Invest in the best chair and delivery unit
you can afford. These items are expensive
to replace and you may not have funding
to do so for 10, 15, or even 20 years.
Delivery Unit: Essential
The delivery unit refers to the suite of powered
instruments used by the dentist to provide
treatment. The instruments, or handpieces, are
attached to a movable platform by flexible tubes
containing air, water, fiber optic, and electrical lines.
While the delivery unit primarily involves handpiece
control, many other components can comprise
the delivery unit. The minimum components of a
typical delivery unit are two slow-speed handpiece
positions, one high-speed handpiece position, and
one air/water syringe. You can also add a built-in
scaler, curing light, and intraoral camera to some
delivery units.
The delivery unit also includes a component called
the assistant's instrumentation. These are tools
the assistant uses to clean and dry the mouth and
to assist the dentist with visibility and access.
The assistant's instruments should include two
high-volume evacuators (HVE), one low-volume
evacuator for saliva ejector attachments, and one
air/water syringe.
Several types of delivery systems have evolved to
positions and uses handpieces: over-the-patient
(OTP), European or transthoracic (buggy whip), side
delivery, and rear delivery.
OTP Delivery: Recommend Swing or
Elliptical Versions to Address Right/
Left Handedness
This very common style of delivery system places
the dental handpieces on a movable tray attached
to a post on the dental chair. Such positioning
is right- or left-handed specific and requires a
technician's assistance to change from one side to
another. The chair-mounted unit is often the best
choice for small operatories because of its simple,
integrated design.
OTP units may also be designed and mounted
on the chair to swing from left to right
depending on the handedness of the
operator. This is a cost-effective
solution for the varied needs of
community health clinicians.
Manufacturers may call styles
that readily change (or swing)
from left to right swing, orbital,
radius, or elliptical units. Swing
units also provide ease-ofuse
to the handpieces, with
potentially positive ergonomic
impact. However, the
same features that provide
ease-of-access may also
present a more cluttered and
intimidating appearance to the
patient, and the close proximity
of the instruments may make
some patients anxious.
