The NuSimplicity™ patient chair The NuSimplicity™ patient chair is a new offering from DentalEZ®. The ergonomic design of the NuSimplicity provides features that allow the dental professional to freely maneuver while keeping patients calm and relaxed with its comfortable design. The narrow tapered chair back allows the patient to be reclined close to the operator’s knees, eliminating problematic reaching and twisting, and providing optimum access to the oral cavity. Moreover, the new base plate design of the NuSimplicity allows closer placement of operator stools to provide superior access to the patient.

Dual location touch pad controls are conveniently located on both sides of the upper backrest providing dental professionals easy access without the need to stretch or reach. Dual touch pad controls come standard with the option to add a wireless foot control, unit-mounted touch pad or remote wireless touch pad.

In addition, the NuSimplicity is simple to operate and has advanced features while remaining economical and affordable:

• Simple chair controls include auto return, last position, 3 preset controls and manual settings
• Durable armrests drop down on both sides allowing easy patient entry and exit
• Wide cantilever base design provides easy routing of tubing and wires, while the slim profile provides a clean and uncluttered environment

The NuSimplicity is quiet and has smooth hydraulic movements that help keep the dental professional focused and patients more relaxed. It has 60 degrees of rotation, and height flexibility from 15” to 35.5” to accommodate both sit-down and stand-up dentistry and ensure comfort for dentists of any stature.

Optional features such as air glide technology as well as a USB outlet are available. The base of the NuSimplicity is available in either cast or steel plate design, and a wide variety of upholsteries and color combinations to match any office décor.
