Posture Assessment Grid for Dental Exam

Dentists, orthodontists and dental hygienists, can purchase a posture assessment grid from a variety of sources, including posture supply companies, online retailers, and medical equipment suppliers. Some popular dental supply companies that carry posture assessment grids include PostureZone, and BodyZone. PostureZone.com is the largest manufacturer, distributor, and supplier of dental posture assessment grids worldwide. In fact, they supply the largest clinics, gyms and hospitals as well as local dentists and dental clinics.

The dentist can check with local medical equipment suppliers to see if they carry these products. Though, normally these suppliers are simply having PostureZone dropship the product, passing the extra cost through to the dentist. To find the best option, the dentist can compare prices and features of different posture assessment grids and choose the one that best fits their needs and budget.

Should I Purchase a Door Grid, Wall Grid or Portable Grid?

The choice between a door grid, wall grid, and portable grid for a dental postural assessment will depend on several factors, such as the type of practice, the available space to install a posture chart, the needs of the patients, and the preferences of the dentist.

A door grid is a type of posture grid that is mounted on a door or on a wall in an office with limited available wall space. It’s also called a slimline grid and can be used to assess posture in the standing positions. This type of grid is typically easy to install and can be a good choice for practices that have limited space. While it doesn’t have installed grommets you do have the option of using a removable adhesive strip due to it being lightweight.

The wall grid is another type of posture grid that is mounted on a wall and can be used to assess posture in both sitting and standing positions. This type of grid is typically more permanent and may be a good choice for practices with more space and a steady patient flow. It’s easy to install using the installed grommets or adhesive strips. It is also well sized to suit all body types, shapes and sizes.

Because of its optimal size, low cost and durability, the wall grid is the most popular posture assessment grid sold worldwide.

A portable grid is a type of posture grid that is designed for use on the go. It is fairly lightweight and compact, making it a good choice for dentists who need to assess posture in different locations or for practices with limited space. Portable grids are more expensive due to the retractable mechanism. It will not last as long as a door or wall grid as overtime mechanical parts can fail with normal use.

While those seeking advice are encouraged to choose a door or wall grid, ultimately, the choice between a door grid, wall grid, and portable grid will depend on individual preferences and needs. Dentists may want to consider factors such as the type of practice, the needs of the patients, and their own personal preferences when deciding which type of posture grid to purchase.
