New dental-furniture concept | Dental Economics

A-dec, Inc. introduces Preference II 5555 Left/Right Treatment Console, a new dental-furniture concept designed to help doctors create their ultimate operatory.

All instruments are centrally located on a base which allows 180° rotation, allowing the dental team to quickly change instrumentation for left- or right-handed delivery.

Standard highlights also include drawer, storage and shelf modules; a vented steel subbase; computer monitor platform and keyboard arm modules; and a number of other options such as writing surfaces and glove dispensers.

For details on A-dec`s new Preference II dental furniture, contact a local authorized A-dec dealer or call A-dec at (800) 547-1883.
