Review of dental units 2022: up to 500,000 thousand rubles

The end of the year is a kind of time to take stock. We also decided to follow this tradition, but for the benefit of you, dear readers. All this year, the editors of Dental Magazine closely monitored the market, asked dentists for their opinions, and selected about 30 of the most popular and high-quality dental units that are worth their money and do not let the dentist down. Why installations? Yes, because you can’t go anywhere without it. A clinic can survive without x-rays, but not without an installation. Without a 3D scanner, a doctor can provide assistance, but without installation? Exactly. For a doctor, this is a primary tool, and there is no need to compare it with cars and other things. There is always a demand for equipment, because new clinics open, old devices break down, and a specialist spends a lot of time trying to find something that will help him provide quality care in the coming years. Therefore, Dental Magazine got down to business.

Before we started working on the article, we thought about the format. Agree, it is simply impossible to compare an installation that costs 200,000 and a “top-end” one that costs several million. They have different functionality, and their future owners have different budgets.

Therefore, it was decided to split the review into 3 parts:

up to 500,000 rubles;
up to 1,000,000 rubles;
over 1,000,000 rubles.

The result was a very detailed market study for specialists with different purchasing powers. We decided to start in ascending order, and therefore in this article we will look at budget models. And honestly, some of them are able to give a head start to their more expensive “brothers”. These are high-quality models with five instruments, a comfortable patient chair, good electronics, a convenient hydraulic unit and a long service life.

There is also a convenient hydraulic unit, with a washable ceramic spittoon, which provides heating of the water supplied to the assistant’s table and into the glass.

The ergonomic chair is made of high-quality leatherette and is equipped with a left armrest. Everything is done for the convenience of the patient and the doctor’s work.

Patient chair

A good patient chair must meet two requirements: firstly, to create comfort for the patient during treatment and, secondly, not to interfere with the doctor while working. The chairs differ:

Lifting mechanism: electromechanical or hydraulic. According to a number of technical parameters, an electromechanical chair is considered more reliable and durable, but a hydraulic lift is distinguished by the accuracy of adjustment of different positions.
Anatomical design: with knee and back articulation, with back articulation only, with articulating headrest. Double articulation is preferable: in the lumbar and knee areas and articulation of the headrest along 4 axes, as this allows the patient to take the most comfortable position for treatment. The presence of armrests will also be a plus.
Material: as a rule, the upholstery uses a special seamless coating with antibacterial impregnation, anti-slip effect and increased resistance to mechanical stress, the internal filler is latex. In business and premium class models, “memoriform” material is used as an internal filler (takes the shape of the body), and the upholstery can be made of specially treated genuine leather.
Number of position adjustments. The standard number is 5 positions (top, bottom, forward, backward, horizontal). Additional features: rinsing function, return to starting position, synchronous movement of the back and knee areas.

AJ 15

According to service engineers, this installation is very reliable and easy to maintain. In addition, it is also very durable: casting is used to make elements, which not only makes it safe and comfortable to use, but also increases its service life. At the same time, the alloy steel frame does not rust or creak. The quality of the upholstery is also quite high, but if it wears out, you can replace it yourself in 10 minutes. There is plenty to choose from: polyurethane, eco-leather and more than ten shades of color.

As for the opinion of doctors, this model is in greatest demand among surgeons. And most of them note that it is very comfortable to work on it. There is a master lever that simplifies the installation and saves a lot of time. When the unit is turned off, it automatically discharges the accumulated condensate into the sewer system. Moreover, the installation allows you to independently connect two bottles for supplying water and disinfectant, which will keep the liquid used during treatment procedures sterile.

AJ 15 is made so that the doctor works both from the side of the patient's head and from the side of him. The doctor's module can be moved all the way to the head; there are enough hoses for any supply. Is it possible to work on it with an assistant? Definitely. For this purpose, the installation has an assistant module with control of ten functions

The package includes an ultrasonic scaler ''Woodpecker UDS N2'', a dental lamp Lamp I and a light-polymerization lamp Woodpecker Led G. So, for little money you get a serious device.

Middle Ages and Renaissance

Medieval medicine did not leave any noticeable mark on the history of medicine in general and dentistry in particular. This is due, firstly, to the decline of surgery, since, according to church representatives, engaging in “digging in the entrails” was unworthy of an educated doctor. And secondly, the medicine of that era was scholastic in the sense that it was divorced from real practice. Often, doctors at a consultation argued about the accuracy of a quote from a medical treatise instead of proposing specific methods of treating the patient. The role of surgeons and dentists was taken on by bath attendants, barbers, farriers and even executioners. Moreover, some of them knew how to masterfully pull out teeth thanks to extensive practice, because any treatment boiled down to removing the diseased tooth.

In the 15th-17th centuries, despite the fact that universities began to study surgery, the confrontation between surgeons and doctors continued. Surgeons and dentists were called charlatans, i.e. “medics who have not received any medical education” and these occupations were considered unworthy of a gentleman. According to the Englishman Henry Peacham, which he expressed in his Treatise on the Perfect Gentleman (16th century), gentlemen can be lawyers or doctors with the exception of dentists, surgeons and obstetricians. This opinion turned out to be very stable and until the beginning of the 19th century, dentists were very reluctantly accepted into English high society.

Azimuth 500A

This installation can be the optimal solution for the clinic. It has a bottom feed (Midwest connector) and a standard output for 5 tools. The module is equipped with an LCD touch display, from which you can control tools, a chair and a lamp at the same time. The setup is automated, and everything from tip operation to glass rinsing works at the touch of a button. This is very convenient and makes your work much easier.

Unlike many other setups in this price range (and even on this list), this one has a full-fledged assistant module. It is equipped with an additional water-air gun for the assistant, a saliva ejector, a dust ejector with automatic activation, a polymerization lamp, and a chair control unit. And with all this, you can connect additional options. Therefore, Azimut 500A is extremely convenient for four-handed operation.

In principle, she has no weak points. Excellent hydraulic unit, comfortable suture chair, memory of three positions, good lamp. For its price, this is a reliable device that will not tie the doctor’s hands.

Recommendations when choosing

According to dentists, it is appropriate to follow some tips on what to look for in order to avoid mistakes when choosing.

The design is ergonomic and should best suit the individual characteristics of the doctor for comfortable work.
Manufacturer. It is important not to buy the first model you come across, but to compare at least three from different manufacturers with an excellent reputation, supplied to the Russian market for at least 10 years.
Necessary equipment without unnecessary functions with a full range of options necessary for a specialist.
Safety, convenience for patients.
Match the design and color scheme of the dental unit to the interior of the clinic.
If necessary, check the possibility of restructuring for children.

Compliance of the structure, brand, design with the professional image of the doctor.
Studying dentist reviews about a specific model will help you choose the most suitable one so as not to waste your money.
Mandatory certification. Without a registration certificate of compliance with Russian and European standards, it will be impossible to go through the equipment licensing procedure.

Hydraulic unit

The hydroblock contains a spittoon bowl and a glass for the patient. A ceramic rotating bowl is more functional, reliable and meets hygienic safety requirements; a glass fixed bowl is more affordable.

Inside the hydraulic unit there is a suction system for liquids (saliva, blood, etc.) and solid particles (tooth chips, filling material) from the patient’s oral cavity. The following types of aspiration systems are distinguished:

The ejector system operates on the principle of hydrodynamics, which creates a reverse air flow that sucks in liquid and solid particles.
The vacuum system is based on the creation of a discharged area through the operation of a vacuum compressor. For the vacuum aspiration system to operate correctly, it is necessary to install a separator to separate solid particles from the liquid. Vacuum aspiration systems are divided into individual and centralized.

Additionally, the hydraulic unit can be equipped with the following systems:

Amalgam separator for separating and collecting amalgam into a special container
Water heating for water-air gun
The hygienic safety system allows for internal disinfection of the installation’s water circuit hoses

The disinfection system ensures the cleanliness of the liquid supplied to the instruments
