RESPONSIBILITY 

 

While echoing the United Nations Social Development Goal 3 ‘Ensuring healthy lives and wellbeing of all’, as a manufacturer of dental treatment solutions XO CARE works to ensure optimal health conditions for practitioners and their patients.

Likewise, and in accordance with Goal 12 we strive to make good use of resources and to improving energy efficiency.

 

To reduce prevalence of oral diseases and maintain oral health in the population dental care services are crucially important, i.e., it is crucial to maintain effective coordinated preventive measures aimed at healthy persons as well as regular treatment intervals among people with oral diseases. 

 

Therefore, since it is crucially important to maintaining oral health of all citizens, also that dental professionals must protect their own health according to ergonomically correct working procedures, and while maintaining a safe work environment, where the risk of infection spread between patient and dental professionals as well as among patients is minimized. 

ERGONOMICS

Ergonomic dentistry is one of XO CARE’s trademarks. We design all our dental solutions with the aim to ensure that the practitioners sit well, see well and work well – all at the same time. 

In the industry various types of dental units are available.

At XO CARE, however, we are convinced that the healthiest- and most efficient solution for the dental team is working with the instruments centrally placed over the chest of the patent.

 

Se how XO CARE protects the the practitioners’ health here.

 


INFECTION CONTROL

Dentistry is classified in the high-risk category occupation due to extensive use of aerosolization procedures and thus, inflict the dangerous risk of SARS-CoV-2 transmission from patient to themselves, their dental assistants, other office staff members, and viral transmission to the patients. Therefore, containment of aerosols in dental practice has become a very important need.

 

As part of XO CARE’s design-thinking our focus has always been on highest standards of infection control such as:

    • Smooth and easy to clean surfaces
    • Detachable handles, instrument hoses, instrument holder, cuspidor and suction nozzles etc.
    • Integrated water and suction line disinfection

COVID-19

As a dental practitioner, you probably recognize the problem with aerosols containing bacteria and viruses spreading all over the dental treatment room1. You probably also know all too well how much time you must spend between each patient cleaning and disinfecting all instruments and materials stored in the treatment room; a task that has only increased in importance after the COVID-19 crisis. 

In most dental practices, the outcome of this increased focus on disinfection procedures is fewer patients treated per hour.

Imagine if you could store materials and instruments outside the treatment room. Imagine if you could rethink the workflow using trays and tubs, instead of having to pause while the treatment room is being cleaned and disinfected.

Imagine the financial advantages that would come with an increase in productivity.

 

XO CARE has developed XO WORKTOP - a compact workbench designed with these industry changes in mind.

See films of how XO WORKTOP offers efficient workflows with trays and tubs stored outside the treatment room here.

 

 

MAKING GOOD USE OF RESOURCES

XO products are designed and produced according to highest standards, choice of best materials and with an aim to last as long as 20 years or more. Examples of XO units in use for more than 30 year exist, just like we approve of XO Partners refurbishing old units for re-use.

 

IMPROVING ENERGY EFFICIENCY

In the design and production of the new XO FLOW unit, specific efforts are made to observe reduced energy consumption. The stand-by function is unique in dental unit manufacturing.
