When Was the World’s First Dental Chair Invented?

Do you know when the world’s first dental chair was invented? Its creation has profoundly changed humanity, and its creation is worthy of learning and reference for DYM Dental Equipment Company. We are committed to improving the treatment level and work efficiency of dentists around the world.

In 1790, American dentist Dr. Josiah Flagg transformed a Windsor chair into the world’s first dental chair, marking the beginning of the development of dental chairs. Over the next two centuries, from Snell’s reclining chair to Beale’s patented wooden chair to Wilkerson’s hydraulic chair, each technological innovation in dental chairs has improved patient comfort and dentist efficiency.

With today’s rapid technological advancements, dental care has entered a new era of digitalization, intelligence, and integration. Foshan Duoyimei Medical Instrument Co., Ltd. is upholding this innovative spirit and is committed to providing dentists worldwide with comprehensive, one-stop smart clinic solutions that go beyond the demands of individual devices.

How does DYM Medical help dentists around the world improve efficiency?

We understand that modern dentists need more than just a single dental chair, rather they need a highly coordinated and seamless working system.

1. One-stop dental equipment support, saving you time and effort.

Say goodbye to the hassle of patchwork dental equipment. Starting with the core electric dental chair, we offer a complete suite of perfectly matched dental equipment, including professional doctor’s chairs, instrument control panels, automatic sensor water supply system, saliva suction system, intelligent sensor-controlled dental lights, removable side box, ergonomically designed and comfortable cast aluminum chair frame, LED curing light, high and low speed dental handpieces, scalers, and intraoral camera. Our dental room equipment includes electric central suction units, wastewater treatment machines and oil-free air compressor. All products are designed and manufactured by us, ensuring a unified style, compatible interfaces and stable performance, creating a harmonious and efficient dental clinic environment.

2. Humanized design helps dentists improve work efficiency.

Optimized Operation Routes: Our dental equipment layout is ergonomically designed, placing commonly used instruments and components within optimal reach. This significantly reduces unnecessary turning and movement, shortens treatment time, and improves patient satisfaction. For example, our dental chair headrest features a concave design, allowing the patient’s head to fit snugly against the headrest, preventing any movement that could disrupt treatment.

Focus on Core Treatment: Stable performance and the user-friendly interface allow clinicians to focus on the patient rather than adjusting equipment. For example, our dental chair frame is made of cast aluminum, providing stability and safety. The 38cm chair position allows for easy access for different patients. The Danish LINAK drive motor is quiet and operates smoothly without lags.

Our engineers have made such improvements to our high speed dental handpiece 203PQ standard push button handpiece with quick coupling based on the daily usage habits of dentists, which is of particular concern to dentists. This improves the grinding efficiency of dentists, reduces their hand strain, and reduces the fear and insecurity of oral patients caused by the sound of grinding.

1. The integrated stainless steel handpiece head is more stable, eliminating the risk of dislodging associated with traditional solder paste soldering.
2. The specially designed sealing ring provides a better seal and quieter operation.
3. The open-type handpiece cartridge offers strong cutting force with minimal vibration, making tooth grinding and preparation more comfortable.
4. The four-point water spray system provides rapid cooling, minimizing discomfort for dental patients.
5. The bearings are imported from Germany for smooth operation and gentle sound.
6. The carved, non-slip exterior design makes operation easier.
7. The stainless steel snap-on quick coupling design allows for easy handpiece replacement, improving dentists’ work efficiency and effectively reducing occupational hazards such as hand joint injuries.
