Guidance & Expertise
from CHC Dental Leaders
Dental Equipment
Twin Head Vacuums
These provide the extra assurance of continuous performance. The life and
performance of a twin head vacuum benefits from a vacuum equalizer alternating the
use of the vacuum heads.
Vacuum Equalizer
Useful to extend the life of twin head vacuums by alternating use of the heads and wear.
Wet Ring Vacuums
Use large amounts of water to operate, but provide excellent suctioning results and
proven reliability.
Hydromiser
Can be added to a wet-ring vacuum to reduce water consumption by as much as 60%.
Dry Vacuums
Provide suctioning but do not need water to operate. We highly recommend choosing a dry vacuum.
Sound Reducing Cover
To help reduce the noise of the vacuum if it is located in a closet near the work area.

Amalgam Separator: Required
All dental offices are required to install either a ISO 11143:2008 certified amalgam
separator or a certified ANSI/ADA Standard No.108 amalgam separator, both at
a separation rate of 95%. New dental offices have 90 days to install an amalgam
separator and existing dental offices have until July 14, 2020 to install an amalgam
separator. Existing dental practices who already have an amalgam separator installed
have until July 14, 2024 to install an amalgam separator that meets all the regulation
requirements. Exemptions: the dental rule applies to offices, including large institutions
such as dental schools and clinics, where dentistry is practiced that discharge into publicly owned treatment
works. The new EPA dental regulation does not apply to mobile units or offices where the practice of dentistry
consists only of the following dental specialties: oral pathology, oral and maxillofacial radiology, oral and
maxillofacial surgery, orthodontics, periodontics, or prosthodontics.

Compressor: Essential
Used throughout the office to propel handpieces, dry teeth, clean out hand-held
instruments before sterilization, and for lab work. The compressor is the other essential
and critical item found in the utility closet. If the compressor fails, treatment comes to
a halt. A reliable compressor is therefore a worthwhile investment. The compressor is
connected by 1/2" copper lines which typically run under the surface of the floor to the
operatory and other parts of the office.
Just as with the vacuum, the size of the compressor is dependent on the number of
operatories and simultaneous users your office will have. Some options to consider:
