Dental Air Polisher
Dental Air Polisher A handpiece-mounted prophylaxis instrument that removes plaque and stain by projecting a controlled slurry of abrasive powder, compressed air, and water at the tooth surface. 29 parts · 6 subsystems
Dental Amalgamator
Dental Amalgamator A capsule mixer for dental materials: a motor spins an eccentric that whips a clamped capsule through a fast figure-of-eight, triturating amalgam alloy with mercury or shaking glass-ionomer to a uniform mix in a timed few seconds behind a safety lid. 52 parts · 7 subsystems
Dental Apex Locator
Dental Apex Locator An electronic endodontic instrument that locates the apical constriction of a root canal by measuring the impedance ratio between an intracanal file electrode and a lip electrode at two or more frequencies. 208 parts · 7 subsystems
Dental Articulator
Dental Articulator A precision mechanical jaw simulator that holds maxillary and mandibular casts in the patient's bite relationship and reproduces hinge and sliding jaw movements so crowns, dentures, and splints can be built to a working occlusion. 52 parts · 7 subsystems
Dental Autoclave (Class B)
Dental Autoclave (Class B) A Class B benchtop steam sterilizer for a dental surgery: a fractionated vacuum pump evacuates air from a sealed chamber, a boiler floods it with saturated steam, and a controller logs the time/temperature/pressure trace of each cycle. 305 parts · 11 subsystems
Dental Chair Unit
Dental Chair Unit A dental treatment center: a powered patient chair carrying a dentist-side delivery unit, assistant-side suction, water/air supply, a rinsing cuspidor, and an operating light — all plumbed and wired back to a common junction box. 202 parts · 9 subsystems
Dental Cone Beam CT
Dental Cone Beam CT A 3D dental imager: a gantry swings an X-ray tube and a flat-panel detector once around the patient's head, the cone beam casts hundreds of projections onto the panel, and a reconstruction computer turns them into a volume of the jaws and sinuses. 523 parts · 9 subsystems
Dental Curing Light
Dental Curing Light A cordless LED curing light: a high-power blue LED behind a collimating lens and light guide floods composite restorations with ~450–470 nm light, triggering the photoinitiator so the resin polymerises and hardens in seconds under timer control. 26 parts · 7 subsystems
Dental Diode Laser
Dental Diode Laser A chairside soft-tissue surgical laser that couples the output of a near-infrared laser diode into an optical fiber, delivering 0.1–10 W to a handpiece tip for cutting, coagulating, and decontaminating gingival tissue. 441 parts · 8 subsystems
Dental Handpiece
Dental Handpiece A high-speed air-turbine dental handpiece: compressed air spins a bearing-mounted rotor at ~300,000 rpm to drive the bur, with water spray cooling and fiber-optic illumination. 27 parts · 6 subsystems
Dental Milling Machine
Dental Milling Machine A small CNC mill that cuts crowns, bridges and copings from ceramic or zirconia blocks: a high-speed spindle works against four or five servo axes while a coolant or dust path clears the cut and a CNC controller runs the toolpath from the design file. 443 parts · 9 subsystems
Dental Oil-Free Compressor
Dental Oil-Free Compressor An oil-free piston compressor with membrane drying and a coated receiver that supplies dry, hygienic compressed air to dental unit handpieces and instruments. 208 parts · 7 subsystems
Dental Operating Light
Dental Operating Light A shadow-controlled LED examination light on a balanced articulating arm that projects a sharply bounded, color-accurate illumination field onto the oral cavity. 155 parts · 6 subsystems
Dental Suction Pump
Dental Suction Pump A central dental suction pump: an electric motor spins a dry or liquid-ring vacuum head that pulls air through the chairside suction lines, while an air/water separator and amalgam trap clean the flow before exhaust and a control board manages the cycle. 58 parts · 8 subsystems
Dental Ultrasonic Scaler
Dental Ultrasonic Scaler A piezoelectric dental scaler: an ultrasonic generator drives a stack of piezo ceramics in the handpiece, vibrating a threaded steel tip 25–32 kHz against tooth surfaces while an irrigation valve sprays water to cool the tip and flush away dislodged calculus. 40 parts · 9 subsystems
Dental X-Ray Unit
Dental X-Ray Unit A wall-mounted panoramic/intraoral dental X-ray system with a rotating C-arm and digital CMOS detector. 113 parts · 10 subsystems
Intraoral Camera
Intraoral Camera A pen-sized wand camera that images teeth and soft tissue inside the mouth under its own LED illumination, streaming live macro video to the chairside monitor for diagnosis, documentation, and patient communication. 228 parts · 6 subsystems
Intraoral Scanner
Intraoral Scanner A wand the dentist sweeps around the mouth to build a colour 3D model of the teeth: a structured-light projector and an image sensor capture the surface, an onboard processor stitches the frames live, and a heated tip mirror keeps the optics fog-free. 240 parts · 8 subsystems
Panoramic Dental X-Ray
Panoramic Dental X-Ray An extraoral radiography machine that sweeps an X-ray tube and digital detector around the patient's head on a motorized arm, synthesizing a single flattened image of both jaws, all teeth, and the temporomandibular joints. 507 parts · 8 subsystems
Pet Microchip Scanner
Pet Microchip Scanner A handheld RFID reader that energizes a passive identification transponder implanted under an animal's skin and decodes the unique 15-digit ID it transmits back, working across the 134.2 kHz ISO standard and legacy 125/128 kHz chips. 229 parts · 6 subsystems
Veterinary Anesthesia Machine
Veterinary Anesthesia Machine A cart that keeps an animal anaesthetised during surgery: regulated oxygen and carrier gas pass through a flowmeter and a vaporiser that adds a precise dose of volatile agent, then circulate through a CO2-absorbing breathing circuit driven by a bellows ventilator, with waste gas scavenged and the patient watched on a monitor. 357 parts · 9 subsystems
Veterinary Clipper
Veterinary Clipper A professional animal grooming and surgical-prep clipper in which a high-speed motor drives a reciprocating cutter blade against a stationary comb, shearing coat hair at up to 4,000 strokes per minute. 178 parts · 8 subsystems
Veterinary Hydrotherapy Treadmill
Veterinary Hydrotherapy Treadmill An underwater treadmill for canine rehabilitation: a glass-walled tank floods to a chosen depth over a moving belt, so buoyancy unloads healing joints while warm water adds resistance and the therapist controls speed from a console. 249 parts · 7 subsystems
Veterinary ICU Cage
Veterinary ICU Cage An intensive-care animal enclosure that regulates oxygen concentration, temperature, and humidity around a critical patient while sensors and alarms track the cage climate continuously. 293 parts · 8 subsystems
