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.
