Over-the-patient Delivery

Since over-the-patient delivery can fit in small operatories, and can be sold as a package, it is commonly the most frequently sold style by equipment manufacturers. A major drawback with the over-the-patient style is that it can interfere with patient comfort, raise patient anxiety and may limit integration of new technologies due to size constraints.

Recommended Room Size: 8’ – 12’ wide by 9’ – 12’ deep.

Advantages

  • Requires minimum size treatment room
  • Minimal operating movement

Considerations

  • Instruments in front of patient’s eyes (can cause anxiety)
  • Handpiece tubings may drag on patient’s chest
  • May cause patient to feel trapped
  • Patient entry/egress to chair can be restricted
  • May limit instrument integration
  • Unit may interfere with microscope placement

Testimonials

"I have been using ASI Endodontic carts for a number of years in two practices. As an Endodontist I am used to dealing with a number of machines and foot pedals. The biggest advantage of ASI carts is to reduce the amount of mess in my working environment. This helps with the safety and tidiness of the practice, while the cart design is very elegant and impressive in front of patients.
