Chest of drawers includes a fixed structure which defines at least one housing configured to house at least one moveable drawer configured to have a closed position with respect to the fixed structure in which the drawer is completely contained inside the housing and an open position in which at least part of the drawer protrudes outside the housing. The chest of drawers includes a first identification element visible from the outside of the fixed structure configured to provide information regarding the contents of the drawer.

A non-invasive dental or surgical monitoring system is disclosed. The monitoring system is comprised generally of dental or surgical equipment to be monitored, a main sensor unit, a set of sensors. The main sensor unit is in communication with various sensors removably attached to the equipment. The sensors monitor environment conditions related to the equipment rather than directly monitoring the equipment. The collected data is sent to the main sensor unit and can be accessed, or wirelessly transmitted by signal to a device or devices at another location. As collected data aggregates, a data profile can be created, machine learning can be used to discover patterns, and predictive analysis can be incorporated to help software make predictions of, or spot in real time, equipment problems based on deviations from the profile.

A shelf assembly comprises a shelf, an arm having a distal end and a proximal end, a first pivot connection between the shelf and the distal end of the arm, and a second pivot connection between the proximal end of the arm and a base. The base comprises a drawer movable in translation between at least a storage position and an operating position. A cabinet for a swing-out shelf is also described.

A system is disclosed for processing a plurality of customized dental restorations from individual millable material blocks in an automated process. The system comprises processing units that may comprise one or more of a milling center comprising one or more milling units, a plurality of material blocks a separating unit, a scrap disposal unit, a heating unit and a cooling unit. A carrier for holding a plurality of individual workpieces in spaced arrangement is also disclosed for use in the system.

A medical treatment apparatus includes a power and control (PAC) device. The PAC device provides electrical power through a cable to a laser handpiece assembly to electrically power a laser source within the handpiece assembly. The PAC device controls operation of the handpiece assembly and detects an identification of the handpiece assembly. The PAC device also monitors data relating to operation of the handpiece assembly. The PAC device uploads, through a communication network to a user assistance center remote from the PAC device, the handpiece assembly identification and the monitored data.

An actuation assembly for an oral irrigator includes a bezel secured to or formed as part of a housing of the oral irrigator, an actuator operably connected to the bezel and moveable relative thereto, and an augmentation fluid positioned between the bezel and the actuator. The augmentation fluid modifies a frictional relationship between the bezel and the actuator to provide a predefined resistance force between the actuator and the bezel as the actuator is rotated relative to the bezel.

The invention relates to structures of a dental care unit used in dental care work. In the invention, a frame part of the dental care unit comprises a means to attach a vertically extending support part, and a cover structure (22) of the frame part comprises at least a first and a second cover part (22′, 22″). The support part extends vertically essentially from an area of a seam locus (23) between the cover parts, whereto is arranged a seam element (24). The seam element (24) is preferably arranged to emit light as controlled by a control system of the dental care unit. A dental care unit like this is specifically applicable for use in a dental care room or premises comprising several dental care units.
