Design for the Modern
Office: Junction Boxes
|
What is the optimal location to install the air, suction and
electrical connections when designing the physical plans for a centrally
plumbed dental operatory? This
question of Junction Box location has become more complex as technology increases
and ergonomics is of utmost importance in a modern dental practice. Traditionally, general contractors have
installed the Junction Box in the floor below the dental chair to supply a
basic over-the-patient delivery system and assistant's package with air,
suction and electricity.
ASI's Advanced Endodontic Cart Systems, Cabinet and Wall
Mounted Systems have become the preferred style of delivery for dental
specialists who utilize multiple instruments that a traditional
over-the-patient unit cannot accommodate. Cart systems and cabinet/wall mounted systems are more ergonomic during
microscope enhanced dentistry, better accommodate IT such as monitors, CPU's and can be
stored out of sight of the patient reducing patient apprehension.
 ASI's In-Wall Junction Box is the total solution to
house and conceal the plumbing and electrical connections for side delivery and
twelve o'clock delivery systems. The design provides a template for the
electrician, plumber and dry-waller to correctly install utilities and also
provides an optimal solution for umbilical placement. For further details on ASI's In-Wall Junction Box, check out

associated with plumbing an office, check out ASI's Self-Contained Systems as

ASI's new integrated saline
pump allows dispensing of sterile solutions for surgical procedures. It
eliminates the need for a separate table-top unit and the integrated endodontic
motors can be used instead of a dedicated implant motor. The saline pump pressurizes
the external water line tubing and can be attached to surgical contra angles or
ultrasonic handpieces. The pump is controlled by the same foot control as the handpiece
and features an easy open latch and an IV type pole bag for hanging solutions.
The pump can be side mounted on any ASI Delivery System.
