Ever wonder why dentists want you to come to their office on a regular basis?   Ever feel like that is excessive?   Do you think that going to the dentist is a waste of time if nothing hurts and you brush your teeth?   Well, you are not alone. Many people don’t understand the need and the importance of regular visits to the dentist.   A lot of people only visit the dentist when something is bothering them or something is broken.   We want to take a few minutes to help people understand what regular visits to the dentist can do for you and the processes involved with regular check-ups and cleanings. Good oral hygiene is the key to having a pain-free mouth.   The basic cleaning regimen a person is required to do is brushing of the teeth two or three times a day and flossing the teeth at least once daily.   This process will keep your teeth and gums in good shape and help prevent cavities and bad breath.   If you want to have great oral hyg...

The autoclave was invented in 1879 by Charles Chamberland, but the concept of using steam in an enclosed space for the purpose of preventing sickness had already existed since 1679. Unlike most processes going on in today’s laboratories and hospitals, sterilization has occurred using very much the same principles and methods for the last 150 years. Most advances in dentalautoclave technology since that time have revolved around either keeping better track of the process of sterilization to better guarantee the safety of the users or creating new types of sterilization cycles.   Another element of sterilization that hasn’t changed over time is the use of steam as a sterilizing agent. In order to kill a cell through heat, its temperature must be raised to the point where the proteins in the cell wall break down and coagulate. Steam is a very efficient medium for transferring heat, therefore it is an excellent way to destroy microbes. Air, on the other hand, is a very i...

Suction Performance – One of the most difficult design areas for a mobile dental delivery unit to create, is the powerful suction desired for dental procedures. It needs to provide high flow with moderate strength to pick up debris, capture water coolant effectively and pull viscous solutions through smaller tubings like the saliva ejector or surgical tips. To effectively work for restorative procedures the system should be able to not only power the high-volume suction, but also be able to extract liquid through the saliva ejector simultaneously. When doing comparisons make sure to evaluate the suction strength of both the high volume and saliva ejector handpieces when used together. Doing so will let you know that you have a well-designed portable dental suction system. Compressed Air and Handpiece Performance – When evaluating a mobile dental delivery unit with compressor, make sure that the internal air compressor provided can produce enough air flow at the right pressure ...
