Choice of dental unit

The choice of dental unit is usually based on the range of services that the dentist plans to provide to clients. If complex services are assumed, then you should not buy used dental equipment in parts. It is better to invest once in a dental unit, with which you can provide any type of service. The dental unit consists of three blocks (each of them has its own set of options and functions):

• Physician unit;
• Assistant unit;
• Patient unit.
• Doctor unit

The block of the doctor is the main working block of installation. When choosing it, it is important to decide on the set and quality of the necessary tools, as well as the type of their supply (lower, upper, stationary). The minimum set of necessary tools includes three subjects:

• air-water pistol;
• micromotor;
• turbine tip.

In addition, several very useful tools are often added, such as a scaler, a second turbine, a second micromotor, a lamp, etc.

The change of instruments takes place with the help of the “sleeves” that are available in each dental unit. The block of the doctor can be mobile or stationary.

The first one is more compact (there is more space at the doctor), it is combined with any chair for the patient, and, in addition, allows the dentist to move freely during work.

In the stationary block, the sleeve for tools is located, as a rule, at the top. In this design tools after use returned to its place. The disadvantage is a short sleeve length. Because of it, you have to constantly monitor whether the tool fell on the floor, instead of returning to the site. The lower supply of tools in a stationary installation is also not without flaws. Tool slots are quickly polluted, in addition, you must constantly monitor the position of the tips.

Assistant unit
An assistant unit in a dental unit usually consists of a hydraulic unit and a suction system. The hydraulic unit is necessary so that the patient feels as comfortable as possible. The glass which is automatically filled with water, a conditioner and a spittoon comes into it. In the expensive modernized hydroblocks there is also a number of convenient accessories: a collection of hard grains, amalgam filter, hygiene and disinfection systems, water heating and others. Additional devices are designed to automatically clean the hydraulic unit and prevent solid particles from entering the sewer system, which is important for the long service life of the dental unit.

The suction system removes saliva and residues of solid particles from the patient's mouth. It can be air or injection. The assistant's unit also has its own lighting system (including a lamp) and control pedals.

How to choose the ultrasound machine

WHY SHOULD YOU START A CHOICE?
So, if you decide to buy an ultrasound machine - take your time, evaluate your requirements for the product being purchased on the following five points (if you are buying for a government agency through a tender, you can skip the first four points):

1. NEW / NON-EQUIPMENT.
Do you need exclusively new equipment, or can you consider buying new (reconditioned or demonstration) equipment?

Non-new equipment can be of three types:

Demonstration equipment - devices that sellers represent at exhibitions or approbations (it is often difficult to determine how much it was used). Full or partial warranty is given on such devices.
Just used equipment. As a rule, it is sold without warranty. The history of such devices can only be determined by serial number.
Remanufactured scanners. The body of the device is colored or completely changed, updated software, provide new or restored to the state of the new sensors. Parts with an expired usage period or with a certain percentage of wear are replaced with new ones (the percentage of wear is determined by the person who repairs the equipment). Such devices are warranted. Thus, we get almost a new scanner, unlike a used or demonstration device.

2. CHANNEL OF ADMINISTRATION OF THE ULTRASONIC INSTRUMENT ON THE MARKET.
Official (this is the only possible option for public hospitals). A big plus here is the availability of official service and a telephone support line, where you can help solve all the problems.
"Gray". In this case, you will be given documents on the device, but there may be difficulties with warranty service, service, training.
“Black” (the so-called “in-the-bag” mode of purchase) - this is a way to import sensors, portable scanners. In this case, you are not protected from any risks in the operation of the device.
Independent purchase and transportation of the device from outside the Russian Federation. You can also resort to the services of third-party organizations.
3. NECESSARY TERM OF USING THE SCANNER.
Temporary: you use the device for a period of time, and then resell
Rent: you have your own scanner, but for some time it is impossible to use it, for example, it is under repair
Permanent use: you are going to use the equipment until it becomes outdated or goes down.

4. METHOD OF PAYMENT EQUIPMENT.
You pay immediately the full cost of the equipment, in this case, you can get a lower price from the seller.
You buy in installments. Unfortunately, nowadays less and less sellers are ready to provide installments.
You buy equipment in leasing. A great option if you do not immediately have the right amount.
5. CONFIGURATION OF THE SCANNER.
Devices may vary in mobility: conditionally mobile, mobile, stationary, transforming.
Black and white (without doppler) or color scanner (with doppler).
Software and number of sensors (on these issues, you should consult with an ultrasound specialist working in your organization).

Used Medical equipment today is gaining increasing popularity. There are several reasons for this. The first is to change the consumer's view of goods used abroad from abroad, which was formed in the early 90's due to mass imports of low-quality equipment, including medical equipment used without spare parts. The second reason is the financial crisis, as a result of which the financial possibilities of many clinics significantly decreased.
Medical equipment used from EU countries, as a rule, costs 30-70% lower than the new, while not yielding to it in quality characteristics and functionality, and in many respects surpasses domestic counterparts. Medical equipment used - this is the optimal solution for equipping medical institutions, allowing to improve or build a material and technical base without high financial costs.

The decision to buy used medical equipment is currently the best option for many. The urgency of buying used medical equipment today is due to the following:
