dentist chair

Reclining examination seat

A dentist chair is the reclining seat patients sit in during dental examinations and procedures.

It adjusts to position the patient's head at the right angle and height for the dentist to work.

The term evokes anxiety for many: I'd rather be anywhere than in a dentist chair right now.
