The integration of mechanical and electronic components in dental equipment represents a significant advancement in modern dental technology, enhancing precision, efficiency, and patient safety. This article provides a comprehensive analysis of the structural design, operating principles, and functional synergy of mechanical and electronic systems in dental devices such as dental chairs, handpieces, suction systems, and diagnostic imaging tools. By combining mechanical reliability with electronic control and automation, these integrated systems enable precise movement, real-time feedback, and adaptive performance tailored to the operator’s actions and patient needs. The study also examines how this integration improves ergonomic design, reduces operational fatigue, and ensures consistent treatment quality. Furthermore, the article explores emerging technologies, including sensor-based monitoring, AI-assisted diagnostics, and digitally controlled actuation, highlighting their potential to transform dental practice by optimizing workflow, enhancing patient comfort, and increasing procedural accuracy. The findings underscore the critical role of mechanical-electronic integration in advancing dental care and suggest future directions for innovation in smart dental equipment.
