NEWBERG, Ore., July 2, 2013 – A-dec announced the availability of its
new A-dec 400 treatment room solution today. The combined dental chair and
delivery system is now available to doctors around the world.
A-dec 400 combines
versatility with elegance. Emphasizing flexibility, access and comfort, A-dec 400 satisfies the need for less complexity and more style at a
competitive price point. It’s a solution that complements other A-dec product
lines, such as A-dec 500 and A-dec 300.
The new A-dec 400
gives dental teams an option for a truly ambidextrous configuration to accommodate
doctor preferences. The Radius delivery and support modules quickly and easily
rotate around the chair for complete left/right compatibility.
To elevate treatment room proficiency and enhance doctor
access to the patient, A-dec 400 optimizes ergonomics with an ultra-thin
backrest and positioning of controls and ancillaries, while eliminating
unnecessary movement.
“Our approach
is to help doctors maximize productivity without sacrificing patient comfort,”
says A-dec Project Chief Tom McCleskey. “With A-dec 400, doctors get
exceptional aesthetics with features that make it a versatile investment.”
The new A-dec
400 includes front- and back-mounting locations for the delivery system and
support-side modules. Doctors are able to Radius-mount a monitor, light,
control, cuspidor, and assistant’s arm. The front-mounting location offers
flexibility for limited space, while also providing excellent ergonomics for
operators who prefer side delivery.
Aside from
mounting locations, doctors are able to choose from A-dec’s three dental light offerings
and specify factory-installed ancillaries that can be integrated into
the delivery system and pre-wired for the touchpad controls.
The structure
of the new chair exceeds industry standards for strength, rated for a 400-lb.
maximum patient load. The new armrest design also gives patients a particularly
sturdy and secure grab point.
For customizable styling, doctors can choose between
sleek seamless upholstery and plush sewn upholstery. A-dec’s wide range of
designer color options lend themselves to the A-dec 400 chair’s contemporary aesthetic
and robust design elements.
