Secondhand Smoke and Dental Decay Risk in Infants We're all aware of the negative effects that smoking cigarettes or tobacco can have on our health. it's been well-established that one doesn't need to be the smoker to suffer the impact - secondhand smoke is responsible for a variety of health problems in non-smokers, and children are especially susceptible. But while smoking is known to cause yellowing teeth, bad breath, dry mouth and oral cancer among other things, secondhand smoke can now also be to blame for oral health issues in young people. New research is finding a potential link between secondhand smoke exposure in infants and a heightened risk of dental caries or cavity development. In fact, it was suggested that infants who were exposed to tobacco smoke at 4-months old were at an increased risk for developing decay by the time they reached 3 years of age. Smoking: It Just Isn't Worth It Do yourself and your family a favor by aiming to quit smoking as soon as possible.

Because it will be used daily, it should be comfortable, ergonomic, adjustable and durable. While the seat, backrest and other components can vary in design, the chair or stool must provide sufficient padding and support for long-term use.
Whichever dentist chair is chosen, be sure it is constructed of high quality materials and the upholstery is durable and easy to clean. It also can be a good idea to inquire about the feasibility of reupholstering the seating at a later time.

This is the cheapest dental chair in the Indian market as the traditional chairs range anywhere between Rs 1 lakh to 5 lakhs. The affordable dental chair developed under the ME310 (name of a course) program run at Stanford University has been named as 'FLux". The prototype of the chair has been installed at Sardar Patel postgraduate institute of medical and dental sciences in Lucknow where it is being used successfully since September 2015. This has raised hope that the mass production of this dental chair could be done in near future which would further bring down the cost. The development of this dental chair has received applause from project director, Standford university, Larry Lifer. The most unique feature of this dental chair being that it is very patient friendly. Talking to TOI, Amit Kundal, PHd scholar at IIT-Kanpur who has worked on developing the chair said, "It was after carrying out thorough study of the present day dental chairs and the needs of the patients that we started working on the design of our chair.
While we omitted out those features which were not required, we added a few features which could have made our designed chair a comfortable experience for the patients. The dental tools which otherwise a patient is able to see on a traditional dental chair is not visible in our model. The tools visible to the patients unnecessarily create panic in his mind knowing the fact that he has to undergo a dental surgery." He while talking about a new feature of this chair said that spittoon has been made modular in low cost chair instead of it being manual. Kundal said that in this mega project two universities including IIT-Kanpur and PUJ Colombia were the academic partners, Sardar Patel PG institute of Medical and Dental Sciences in Lucknow was the industry partner. The project was supported by Stanford university. Prof Shantanu Bhattacharya under whose guidance the dental chair was developed said a patent for the low cost dental chair has been filed by us. He said that the students took guidance and consultation for their project from other faculty members on the institute campus.
This included valuable comments from Prof Satyki Ray of Design program department. Mohit Tewari, another student involved in the project informed that the low cost dental chair will come in the budget of the dentists who otherwise find it difficult to set up a dental clinic as the tools specially the chair comes very costly. He said that the cost of the chair starts from Rs one lakh but this one is only for Rs 20,000. Therefore, any student clearing Bachelor of Dental Surgery course will be able to set up his clinic easily now. "In India every second person has dental hygiene problem. There is only 1 dentist for 2.5 lakh people in Indian rural market. In urban area for every 10,000 patients, there is only dentist. Consumption of tobacco and Cigarette are the major causes of such situation. The cost of setting up dental facility is very high and that is the reason why there is such a gap in terms of dentist per person in India. Thus we took up this challenge of designing a affordable dental chair for masses in India", said Tewari.
