Planmeca’s unique teaching concept

“It’s wonderful that we are investing in the students and can provide new innovations for training. The best part is that the students are in a simulated setting right from the start and can follow hygiene procedures and data records, for example.”

One software for all needs

“Thanks to Planmeca Romexis® Clinic Management, the procedures at workstations can be monitored. Maintenance and operations are handled by the department’s medical technicians, and the head dental nurse supervises the cleaning functions that extend the life of the equipment. The dental unit recognises which user logs in and “disconnects” instruments that the particular user is not allowed to use (e.g. the micromotor). The Clinic Management software has many options that can be of help during teaching.”

Planmeca digital dental units

“Patients treated with Planmeca units tend to move less since they feel much more comfortable than in other units. Our patients specifically request for treatments to be carried out on Planmeca units. Planmeca’s dental unit design is very different and modern looking. Patients easily identify them as higher-end units due to their nice ergonomic design.”

Lecturer and Clinical Coordinator, Dr Hikmah Mohd Nor

Impeccable infection control

“Planmeca dental units are significantly easier to service with their clear error reporting system shown on the screen. The issues encountered with them have been very minimal. The epoxy powder finishing and smooth surface facilitate efficient infection control, and the infection control steps are so straightforward that students have no excuse for not following them. The unit’s construction is very durable and the upholstery is very comfortable for both students and patients.”

Functional clinic planning

“At our university, each treatment station is the most optimal size. It would not be possible to fit into a space with a smaller floor area. However, there is enough room to manoeuvre. For example, positioning the dental unit for right- or left-handed use just takes a couple of minutes. There is also enough space to carry out maintenance procedures well. When you consider how much one square meter costs in rent over 10 years, you are already talking about quite a large sum of money.”

Taking dental education to a new level

“It is of primary importance that students are exposed to the latest technology. Otherwise, there will be no development.”
