Abstract: A safety dental chair includes a chair having a back and seat portions, the back portion having front and rear surfaces and upper and lower ends. The safety dental chair includes an automatic external defibrillator and a CPR safety board removably coupled to the chair back portion adjacent its rear surface. A vitals monitor may also be coupled to the chair which includes a pulse oximetry finger clip, a blood pressure cuff, and at least one display. The vitals monitor includes programming for determining pulse oximetry using data received from the pulse oximetry finger clip, for determining blood pressure using data received from the blood pressure cuff, and for actuating the display to present the oximetry and blood pressure. The safety dental chair may include a headrest constructed of memory foam for supporting a patient's neck and the patient's airway open. The chair may be automated for adjusting its position.
