Dürr launch the two surgery suction system

Dürr Dental is pleased announce the launch of the VS600 two-surgery suction system. The suction unit is a pre-requisite for a relaxed and hygienic working environment as constant interruptions for rinsing are a distraction for patients and practitioners alike.

Dürr claims the VS600 two-surgery suction system features a new carbon fibre impeller system that allows the motor to have an extremely fast start-up and low running current, as well as increasing the motor's ability to resist corrosion should a foaming substance accidentally enter the impeller. The VS600 also has an advanced non-return valve for the waste system that allows the engineer to circumvent virtually any installation problem.

Dürr also claims the system will provide the correct level of suction to run two surgeries comfortably, since it has the power to provide at least three hundred litres per minute of vacuum flow per surgery. For more information phone 01933-671990.

More chairs and stools from Support Stool

Support Stool aims to change the way that dental teams sit in the surgery. Commonly, dentists and dental nurses perch on the edge of the stool causing pressure on the coccyx and forcing the lower back into a 'slump' position.

Support Stool claims the stool forces dentists or nurses to sit correctly and allow them to maintain good posture - even when they are leaning forward.

The company also claims the stool can be upholstered to match any dental brand colour or any surgery design that dentists may have.
