DENTAL ERGONOMICS REQUIRES A QUALITY NECK PILLOW

Does patient neck strain in the dental chair have you considering a dental neck pillow? The issue of patient neck discomfort is common with articulating dental chairs. This is because proper head-positioning requires setting the occlusal plane at 15-20 degrees. This backward tilt can leave the arch of the cervical spine unsupported, resulting in painful neck strain. Dental neck pillows, sometimes called dental headrests are often seen as an efficient solution to providing comfortable neck support.  

 Be informed when shopping for a dental neck pillow for your articulating dental chair. You should seek products that offer high-density memory foams. A recommended specification memory foam should be rated at 5-pound or 6-pound density. These higher-density memory foams will provide better patient neck support and still offer head-positioning control for healthy, chair side dental ergonomics. They will also offer greater longevity.

 MediPosture brand dental neck pillows are offered in both the 5-pound and 6-pound high-density memory foams that offer superior, industry-leading performance.

 The CLASSIC series of dental neck pillows are a great value and feature 5-pound density memory foam that will transform the comfort of your dental chair. The amazing comfort will have patients more accepting of being reclined and allow you to correctly position.

 For maximum comfort and head-positioning control, we recommend the industry-leading design of the ICORE series neck pillow. This flagship neck pillow exclusively features 6-pound high-density memory foam for unprecedented comfort, patient neck support and head-positioning control.

 So if you are considering a dental neck pillow to improve the comfort of the patients in your dental chair, we recommend that you check out the high-performing selection at MediPosture. The premium comfort and quality will delight!
