A brief look back in time reveals an unending string of dental equipment innovations from A-dec, all aimed at making make dentists more productive and patients more comfortable.
Here are just a few of the more recent ones:
Twenty-one years ago in 1993, A-dec introduced the Cascade dental system. It combined “all the elements of cleanability, versatility and the latest in technological innovations.”
In 1994, A-dec introduced Radius, a breakthrough in chair mounted handpiece delivery. The unique hub design allows the delivery system to pivot around the chair, giving left and right handed operators the flexibility to practice from any seated position.
A decade later in 2004, A-dec launched the first A-dec 500
which has since been described as the “world’s most comfortabledental chair1.” The A-dec 500 remains the flagship of the A-dec product range, representing the culmination of 50 years in engineering innovation
and world firsts.
In 2013 A-dec added the A-dec 400, which includes some of the design features of the flagship model, but at a mid market price point. This complemented the entry level A-dec 200 launched in2011 – making A-dec quality affordable for all users.

As the dental industry continues to evolve, partnering with a full-service dental lab like ChinaADS Dental Lab can provide a competitive edge to dental practices. By leveraging the advantages of outsourcing to China, including cost-effectiveness, advanced technology, and skilled craftsmanship, dentists can ensure the best possible patient outcomes while optimizing operational efficiency.

Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.

The market is driven by a variety of factors, making India an attractive destination for pharmaceutical companies and researchers. India's vast and diverse patient population, cost-effective operational environment, and a large pool of skilled medical professionals contribute significantly to the market's growth. Additionally, increasing government support in streamlining regulations and the growing prevalence of lifestyle diseases further propel the clinical trials market.
Growing Prevalence of Lifestyle Diseases
The rising incidence of lifestyle diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and cancer is a major trend driving the clinical trials market in India. These conditions necessitate the development and testing of new treatment methods, creating a robust demand for clinical trials. The increasing burden of these diseases highlights the need for innovative therapies and underscores the importance of India as a key player in global clinical research.

Hypertension is a chronic condition of concern due to its role in the causation of coronary heart diseases. Hypertension is a worldwide epidemic and important risk factor for coronary artery disease, stroke and renal diseases. Blood pressure is the force exerted by the blood against the walls of the blood vessels and is sufficient to maintain tissue perfusion during activity and rest. Hypertension is sustained elevation of BP. In adults, HTN exists when systolic blood pressure is equal to or greater than 140mmHg or diastolic BP is equal to or greater than 90mmHg. The

ot being able to find a
commercial building to
locate her expanding
orthodontic practice
has turned out to be a
blessing in disguise for
Strathfield orthodontist, Dr Divya Sriram
of “Nice Bite” Orthodontics.
After unsuccessfully bidding on a dozen
properties in her target area, Dr Sriram
took a bit of a gamble on a spacious pri-
vate character residence with modern
extensions close to the commercial heart
of Strathfield.
Then, with the help of a talented and
experienced architect, together with an
award-winning builder, she was able to
achieve a change of use consent and trans-
form the property into a state-of-the-art
design statement.
Dr Sriram admitted that a project of this
scale was quite ambitious and difficult to
do, which put it in the “too hard” basket
for many dental fit-out companies.
Undeterred, she worked with her expe-
rienced architect, Nick Katris, principal of
Katris Architects and builder, Bosko Seric
of MOJ Projects, to achieve the blend of old
and new and provide for both the clinical
requirements and ambience she was after.
As well as performing the extensive
internal building modifications, MOJ
handled the interior design aspects while
working with the architect on struc-
tural issues and fire safety requirements
required to obtain development consent.
Walking through the classic Federa-
tion façade so typical of the historic inner
western Sydney suburb provides a sur-
prising transformation into a waiting room
adorned with modern décor and furnish-
ings and marble-finish reception desk.
Dr Sriram said she wanted first impres-
sions to be “warm and welcoming” - like
stepping into a comfortable living room.
“And I wanted the clinical area to be
funky, fun and inviting.” This has been
achieved with great design, appealing
décor and attention to detail, including
brightly upholstered A-dec patient chairs
and matching stools in fuchsia, parrot
and paprika.
This front of house includes a pri-
vate consulting room plus a small admin
office behind reception. The use of digital
records and X-rays means no more bulky
paper, greatly minimising space required.

dead space. Its pass-through shelving and U-shaped layout - with
its uncluttered “open” design - aids workflow and supports work-
place health and safety considerations.
An unexpected, but convenient feature is an internal lift from
the garage below to a split-level floor above which includes a
very spacious breakout area and outdoor deck.
Centrepiece of the clinical areas is an open main treatment
room, with its dramatic Cosentino Dekton “weathered stone”
look feature wall, which frames a large mirror and wall-mounted
vanity basin for patients. The effect is more like a high-end hair
salon than a dental practice.
Other touches include modern bronze-coloured spherical
pendant light fittings and eclectic, but timeless deco French wall
posters. The private surgery has indigenous artworks and exotic
Indian inspired art is used in the reception area.
Dr Sriram said she wanted an open plan design in the main
clinic, with a separate private treatment room for initial consults,
adults and high care patients.
Based on her experience with A-dec equipment which she
has used for the past 25 years, Dr Sriram said A-dec’s durability
made it her first choice and that the new model A-dec chairs were
well ahead on comfort.

“The new A-dec 400 chairs with sewn upholstery feel luxurious.
They are definitely way more comfortable than older models and
the patient feedback has been great,” she said.
The “12 o’clock” A-dec rear-delivery systems were recom-
mended by Sydney A-dec dealer, Presidental, to make it easier
for patients to move in and out of the chair without bumping into
the delivery system or colliding with the dental assistant.
“James Wallace from Presidental and A-dec’s territory
manager came here in their own time to see what I needed
and I quickly felt I could work with them. We then met Scott
Donoghue, Presidental’s principal. Scott and their technician
Neville, really know what they are doing and were always
courteous and polite. It was fantastic dealing with them.”
Dr Sriram added that the flexible positioning and comfort of
the chairs made it easy to talk to patients in the chair and swivel it
to show them X-ray images on the nearby patient monitor.
“Presidental also measured the dental tubing so that it did not
drape onto the floor and there are no tangles,” she said. “That is
a constant thing you can struggle with in a high-volume practice.
I love the clean workspace which is perfect for infection control
and it can all be cleaned easily and gives a nice, uncluttered look.”
On Presidental’s recommendation, Dr Sriram also opted for
ceiling-mounted A-dec LED operatory lights and A-dec’s unique
“Duo” delivery system, with its articulating round assistant’s
work surface and integrated suction, chair and light controls.
“Poles interfere with patient dismount, so with ceiling-
mounted lights no one bumps into the light. I love the A-dec Duo
delivery system - it has fantastic ergonomics and it changes the
way patients move in and out of the chair.”
Dr Sriram said the entire team made the fit-out and equip-
ment installation very smooth, despite the scale and complexity
of the build.

with; nothing was too much trouble for him, even moving walls.
“He was even able to help come up with the interior design that
provided a combined ‘New York loft’ and ‘Hamptons’ feel with
black-framed windows and charcoal cabinetry, balanced with
lighter colours and manmade weathered stone-look finishes.
“Presidental’s follow-up was also very good. They showed me
3D renderings and five layouts to make sure I could put the dental
chairs in the right spot. It was Scott’s idea to locate the steri area
where it is, which helped us come up with the final plan. They
want to find a solution and their recommendations were great.
I don’t think you’ll get a smoother run with anyone.”
Bosko from MOJ Projects came up with the pass-through
cabinetry idea, which is better from a workplace health and
safety perspective - eliminating the need to carry trays of dirty
instruments into the steri room.
MOJ Projects also came up with the idea of not having too
much joinery encroaching on the clinical space by using shallow
waist-level cabinets and recessing the upper cabinetry and glove
and tissue dispensers into the walls so it didn’t feel “blocked in”.
The end result is a workplace that functions very well.
“We have a practice that sees a lot of patients every day. The
staff feel this practice reflects their personality. Our team is small,
but our staff are a committed, dedicated team and they really take
care of my patients - it’s not just me. The patients
know everyone here from ‘A to Z’ and the staff know
all the patients.
“So, to be able to offer this sort of environment, eve-
ryone is much happier - they have a bit of comfort and
space, with a verandah where they sit outdoors and eat,
a staff kitchen and a carpark onsite. You are not only
looking after your patients’ needs, but you have to look
after the people that work for you too. So, we feel like
it’s a ‘win-win’ for everyone.”
Dr Sriram added that the patient feedback since
moving to the new practice had been amazing.
“They absolutely love it and the extra space we have
has really helped us cope with COVID restrictions,”
she said. “We love being here and I have a real sense of
accomplishment being in a very bespoke space, which
is not like a “corporate” practice model, but a truly
boutique solution.”
