Score Stools – Specially Made for Dentists
Experience the comfort of a saddle chair. The ergonomically shaped saddle seat ensures a healthy back posture, whilst your feet remain firmly on the ground. The saddle shape creates a posture for the spine that is less likely to cause fatigue. The saddle chair offers maximum mobility, allowing you to move easily from one place to the other.
Which Score Dental saddle stool suits you best?
Four steps to making the right choice:
| Correct height
The perfect sitting height is the one where your upper legs naturally follow the shape of the seat. This enables the maximum hip angle to be achieved (130 to 140 degrees) while keeping your weight evenly divided across the seat of the saddle stool and the floor. Because people vary in height, Score Dental saddle stools are available in three different heights, each with its own range of height adjustment. For nine out of ten people, the standard height provides a correct adjustment range to position the stool at the optimal height. It is therefore the most popular option if the stool is going to be shared by multiple persons. |

Perfect fit
Score Dental saddle stools are available in two unique seat shapes. The Amazone for an active narrow sitting posture, and the Jumper for a wider sitting posture.
| Amazone
The shape of the Amazone’s seat facilitates the most open hip angle. Your weight is divided evenly across the seat and the floor. The Amazone seat strikes the best possible balance between the control and healthy posture of standing and the comfort of sitting. |
Jumper
The jumper has a wider seat, resulting in a slightly smaller hip angle than the amazone. A larger part of your body weight rests on the seat. This gives the jumper seat a more traditional sitting experience.

| Question: | Will you be sharing your saddle stool with colleagues? |
| Yes: | If you are going to share the saddle stool, the Amazone is most probably your best choice. It is preferred by 75 percent of all oral healthcare practitioners. |
| No: | Women generally prefer the Amazone due to its narrower seat (83%). If you prefer a wider seat surface, choose the Jumper. Men of average height or smaller typically choose the Amazone because of its more active sitting posture (67%). If you prefer a more traditional sitting experience, choose the Jumper. |
Dynamic sitting
Balance
The Score Dental Balance mechanism ensures maximum comfort and optimal dynamic working posture. This adjustable mechanism enables the saddle to move subtle along with you for extra comfort and a beneficial effect on the muscles and spine. The degree of movement can be adjusted by rotating the ring.
Tilting seat
Instead of the Balance mechanism, you can also choose a tilting seat where the angle of the seat can be adjusted forwards and backwards.
Extra support
Score Dental saddle stools can be equipped with a lumbar support. Its multifunctional shape provides light support for your lower back (lumbar area) while working in an active posture. In addition, you can also lean against it and stretch to relax your back for a moment. The saddle version with tilting seat offers a lumbar support that is adjustable in both height and angle. With the Balance mechanism, the lumbar support can be adjusted in depth, and moves with the dynamic seat.

The anatomically shaped saddle seat tilts the pelvis so the spine is in the most optimal sitting position. The adjustable Balance mechanism ensures that the saddle seat moves along in the same direction as the user, which balances them on the saddle seat.

The smaller and most popular shape the two different seats, the Amazone, facilitates the most open hip angle. Your weight is divided evenly across the seat and the floor.
The Jumper has a slightly wider seat, resulting in a slightly smaller hip angle. A larger part of your body weight rests on the seat. This gives the Jumper seat a more traditional sitting experience.
The multifunctional shape of the lumbar support provides light support for your lower back (lumbar area) while working in an active posture. In addition, you can also lean against it and stretch to relax your back for a moment.
