A-dec 500 Dental Chair

The A-dec 500 Dental Chair has set dentistry's hallmark for treatment room comfort, reliability and performance, since its original manufacture in 1996. The 'legend' that is the 500, gives you optimal ergonomics supported by a full range of integrated possibilities.

The 500's Treatment Centre has been redesigned in 2019 and is now known as the A-dec 500B.  Now with a completely new delivery head for traditional hanging or continental, the dental chair is built to provide even more flexibility for integration in the future. Other outstanding features of this unit include:

Designed to look after you and your Health

The ultra-thin flexible backrest and the ergonomic baseplate allows you to work in a comfortable working position, whether working from behind or from the side. The chair features a 60-degree swivel with brake and the chair raises to a high point of 800mm which is ideal for those who like to work in a standing position.

Outstanding Level of Patient Comfort

The 500 has always been known for its exceptional level of patient comfort.  The precision hydraulic motion cradles your patients and ensures a smooth and assured ride. The pressure-mapped tailored upholstery ensures support across the whole length of the body and the double articulating headrest enables comfort and positioning for the dentist.

Choice of 4 Delivery Options

A-dec offer options for delivery to suit the way you and your team work, within the space you have. Opt for the Traditional Hanging or Continental delivery on the chair. Alternatively, talk to our surgery design team about a rear 'duo' system or side cabinet mounted system.

Incredible Lifting Capacity

Now with an increased weight capacity the chair now holds up to 35 stone (227 kg), more than any other on the market.
