The Salli Surgeon incorporates the most supportive static upper limb support system in the Salli saddle seating range. The support combines a backrest with rear positioned crescent shaped upper limb supports that come around the side of the body to support both arms. As a support that is positioned to the rear of the body it is most popular for dentists who are doing static upper limb hold, long duration precision work.  

In addition to the upper limb support and backrest, the Salli Surgeon has the added functionality of a foot height adjuster as standard, which enables you to be hands free when changing the height of the stool.

Because of the attachment mechanism the Salli Surgeon can only be fitted to the Twin and Multi versions of the stool. 

The patented saddle shaped seat top is designed to facilitate a more upright position by tilting the pelvis forward. Although users can still slouch on this stool, the positioning encourages you to work your core muscles and sit more upright. In the longer term, working the core muscles during saddle sitting is thought by a number of healthcare professionals to play a role in improving posture and reducing the risk of musculoskeletal injury.

Key Questions

What is the difference between the Surgeon Twin and the Surgeon Multi?

The only difference is that the Multiadjsuter allows you to change the width and angle between the two parts of the saddle

How far does the seat move?

The lever based tilt enables you to rotate the seat top up to 30 degrees.

Gas Stem

The gas stem height dictates the height of the seat and so it is crucial you take the time to ensure that it will suit your height. There are four gas stem options which should be selected based on your height. The short gas spring is suitable for users under 160 cm, medium for users between 155–180 cm and long spring for users that are over 170 cm. There is also Mini gas spring is for individuals who have extra low gas stem height requirements – please contact us for more information on the mini gas stem as it is not a standard product. It is worth noting that the spring mechanism on the Salli Swing and Swing Fit adds 5cm in height to the seat height, which means that the short gas spring is suitable for users under 165 cm, medium for users between 160–185 cm and long spring for users that are over 175 cm.

Upholstery

There is a range of fabric options available. For dental use the two most popular options are the leather and artificial leather fabrics. For normal dental practices, we recommend the breathable and durable genuine leather, and for laboratories the disinfectable artificial leather.

Castors

As a standard the stools come with castors suitable for hard floors. However, we can supply other castors including castors for carpets, lockable castors and loaded castors. If you are not sure what castors you need please contact us

Additional Accessories

Footring

The footring is designed to be fastened at the bottom of the gas stem and is designed to provide a firm support surface for the feet when sitting in a higher position.

Foot Aduster:

Occasionally dental professionals need to keep hands free for procedure they are working on and do not want to then have to adjust the seat height. In these situations some dentists prefer to use a foot adjuster to control the height of the stool. The foot adjuster is positioned just above the stool base and allows effortless height adjustment with the press of the foot.
