Planmeca introduces Pro50 dental patient chair

Planmeca introduced the Planmeca Pro50 Chair, a new robust, lightweight and quiet patient chair designed for operator and patient comfort. 

Built from durable aluminum, the Planmeca Pro50 features medical grade motors to ensure noise-free operation, and a range of upholstery colours to match your practice interiors.

Adjustable seat height

Offering a wide height range, the patient seat height can be adjusted between 390mm and 890mm, making the chair suitable for different users and working styles and allowing dental professionals of all sizes to work sitting or standing. 

“Planmeca has been a major player in the dental industry for half a century already, and we have decades of experience in patient chair design and manufacturing,” said Tuomas Jurvanen, Vice President for Planmeca’s Dental Care Units. 

“We listen closely to customer feedback and keep refining our products accordingly. Our product development and manufacturing take place under the same roof at our headquarters in Finland, which makes us very flexible in our processes and allows us to constantly update our portfolio with new products.”

More legroom

The small chair base leaves enough room for the dentist and assistant as well as the chair’s foot control and other devices. The slim and narrow backrest allows the dental team to get close to the patient in optimal ergonomic working position.

For those working with a 12 o’clock cabinet or tray, the chair’s unique lifting mechanism ensures that the distance from the headrest to the cabinet remains the same at every height and the operating light doesn’t need to be readjusted as the chair height changes. 

The backward-tilted seat ensures optimal patient positioning when moving from a sitting to a supine position. The chair also has an optional mobile base, making it easy to move to a new treatment room when necessary.

The Planmeca Pro50 Chair also features a folding leg-rest that provides easy entry and exit and facilitates face-to-face positioning. As patients come in different shapes and sizes, the maximum patient weight for the chair is 185 kg.
