“I’d recommend Archelis to any dentist. Not only because of how it helps with leg and back pain, but it actually increased my range of view during treatments.”

How did you discover Archelis?
IAfter feeling the strain on my back from daily medical examinations, I went looking for something that could reduce that pain. After trying out Archelis at my practice, it was clear that it was something I could use even during dental surgery. That was what decided it for me.
As for which model to go for, I considered both the metal and the FX versions. What swung it in favour of the FX for me was the ability to swap out the legs for the “Stick” attachment at a later date. This turned out to be a great decision, because it turned out I couldn’t use the pedals on my equipment as easily as I wanted, so I got the “Stick” attachment and that’s what I’m using now.
Have you experienced any positive effects from the introduction of Archelis?
I make use of the Archelis three or four times a day during examinations of the back teeth when I have to be standing. I really do feel an impact with less burden on my legs. Also, rather than doing work from my chair, I’m able to get much closer to the patient and work more freely.
One thing I noticed after using it for a while was that I had a better view of the mouth while standing. With just a little change in position it’s easier to see the center of the maxillary molars, which leads to easier treatment. It was a real bonus to my purchase.
It also serves as a great conversation starter with my patients!
Who would you recommend Archelis to?
I’d recommend it to all dentists. When I use Archelis, it not only lessens the physical strain on my legs and lower back, but also makes me better at my job. I can see from better angles, which leads to better outcomes for my patients too.
