The Academic Center for Dentistry at Amsterdam (ACTA) is one of the largest Dental Schools in Europe. ACTA educates over 1000 students and treats 600 patients per day at more than 200 dental chairs. About 175 students per year start their practical dental training at the pre-clinical department. This large facility is situated on the first floor of the 8-story University of Amsterdam dental building at Louwesweg 1, Amsterdam. It consists of two halls A and B, housing 92 and 72 pre-clinical units respectively. Although the individual units are spatially organized in groups of 4, each unit is self supporting, provided with a phantom head, cooling water, rotary instruments, dental light and suction system. All units in A and B were manufactured and installed (in 1997) by KaVo. Municipal Amsterdam drinking water was used for feeding of all clinical and pre-clinical units. Read More
