The New A-dec 500
Sleek, yet supportive. Unassumingly responsive. Predictable and intuitive. Experience the next level.
Superior Care
Precision hydraulic motion allows quiet, gentle stops and starts during patient positioning.
The virtual pivot synchronizes movement with the natural motion of the patient. So, there’s no readjusting when the chair is reclined or returned.
Whole Body Patient Support
The stingray-shaped backrest fully supports the patient’s back and shoulders, while one-piece quilted upholstery feels remarkably plush (sewn upholstery).
Sturdy, multi-position armrests solidly support patients for easy entry and exit.
Optimal Access
The ultra-thin backrest and slim-profile headrest provide ample leg room under the chair. This allows you to position the patient low enough to gain access to the oral cavity while maintaining an ergonomic position.
A-dec 500 Dental Chair Features
Thin, flexible backrest. Allows you to work in a comfortable position—legs under the patient, elbows at your side.
Double-articulating, gliding headrest. Adjusts on the fly with the press of a lever for an optimal view of the oral cavity.
Ergonomic baseplate design. Allows you (and your team) to roll in closer to the patient and work in a comfortable, natural position.
Sturdy, multi-position armrests. Supports patient weight when they need it and moves out of the way when they don’t.
Toeboard tilt. Imperceptibly raises a full 9” for a gentle cradling effect.
Low base-down point. Allows you to work comfortably - regardless of height.
60º swivel with brake. Gives you 30º rotation on each side of center.
