BodyGuard® Ergonomic Dental Chairs




BodyGuard Chairs

Chairs for Dentists, Hygienists, and Dental Assistants

  • Multiple arm adjustments. Dual armrests move five directions to conform with the natural angle of clinicians arm, removing stress from back neck and shoulders
  • Lumbar support. Back tilts perfectly into the lower back for maximum support
  • Seat tilt. Allows for continuous circulation in lower body during long operating procedures.
  • Fits all body sizes. Three arm mounting positions and three height lifts fit all body sizes.

BodyGuard chairs focus on body positions to relieve specific areas of physical stress.

In no other occupation is the design of the seating as critical to the well-being of the user than that utilized in dentistry. The dental clinician, while performing intricate procedures where visibility is limited, naturally compromises body posture. In general, most dental professionals must lean forward to gain visible access, drop their heads and shoulders to obtain best visual distance, project their arms away from their bodies and remain in static positions for long periods of time.

  • Leaning forward – rotates the pelvis backward reversing the normal forward bend in the lower spine.
    • This creates excessive pressure on the spinal discs and the body becomes unstable.
    • Uneven body weight distribution produces pressure under the thighs, impairing leg circulation.
  • Arms held away from the body – places excessive stress on the musculature of the upper armsand shoulders
  • Bending neck forward to gain access to the posteriors – affects the musculature of the upper back and neck
