| Having made everything else
mobile. including homes, Ii
braries and frozen custard
stands, it probably was inevi-
table that Americans would get
around to the dental office.
One of the pioneers in the
latter field is the U. S. Public
Health Service. Today it's den-
fists fly into lonely wastelandS
of Alaska with portable drills
i to treat Eskimos. The PHS is
demonstrating the kits at the
local welfare level to treat in
valids and the aged in their
homes. And the agency has Or
dered new lightweight trailers
to carry modern equipment
into Indian reservations in the
Southwest.
The emphasis on mobility
has opened the dental equip
ment industry to newcomers,
after domination for genera
tions by old established COM
panies that enjoyed a fraternal
association with dentists.
Exit the Pump"
An example is the Fairfax
Manufacturing Co. in suburban
Falls Church, Va. Founded only
four years ago, it is enjoying
sales of $750,000 a year based
on its innovation in a for
merly static industry.
Currently it is installing a
lightweight console" in two
aluminium trailers for the Pub
lie Health Service. The incon-
spicuous cabinet replaces the
old familiar gasoline pump"
Of instruments at the patients S
left elbow.
Dentist and equipment max
erS cite several reasons for
eliminating the old stand. The
orthodox type weighs about $50
pounds, compared to less than
100 pounds for the Fairfax
console. And psychologically
they say the patient feels more
at ease without seeing the clus-
ter of sinister instruments.
The Fairfax company has
been unorthodox from it's in

AS Aero-Turbex sales i'm
proved, Fairfax devised the
"Port-A-Dent," a 19-pound kit
of great interest to the public
health people due to, their con-
Germ with treating patients in
homes and isolated communi-
ties lacking power. Using small
air compreSSorS or carbon di-
oxide cylinders in place of cleo
tricity. the kits cost 1925, and
are now used by both PHS and
State health officers.
A more recent invention by
the Kerns is the "Aero-Quill." a
high-speed pencil shaped drill
for oral surgery. Tipped with
diamond or carbide, it cuts
through bone in seconds, i'm
proving on the old mallet-and-
chiSel technique. In one opera
ton. observers timed it at 13
seconds to cut entirely through
jawbone.
So handy is the device that
the Fairfax company now
thinks it may have industrial
applications in cutting hardened
metals and ceramics, and is
working on a new model
Interest in high-speed tur-
bines has spread to the Army,
where field work still is limited
to the uncomfortable old Slow
spinning burrS, some operated
by the dentists foot on a pedal.
The Army Surgeon Generals
office is now studying compact
compressed air power plants. If
Fairfax ever gets a foot in the
door, its payroll of 40 employees
promises to soar overnight.

ception by Robert G. Kern and
his son, Robert, jr. Both had a
talent for tinkering, the father
while a maintenance supervisor
at a local moving company and
his son as chief engineer for
Hazleton Laboratories in Falls
Church.
Aided by DR.. Lloyd Hazleton,
company president, the pair
went into production of an ul-
ira high speed turbine dental
drill invented by Mr.. Kern
senior. About 80 dentists with
a direct interest in the product
also purchased stock, thereby
entering one of the most un-
usual corporate arrangements
in business history.
Fairfax asked them to test
every new product. The stock
holders continue today as a
testing panel.
Company Expands
The company soon expanded
into international sales for the
product, known as Aero -Tur-
bex. Today dentists from
Tokyo to Reykjavik use it.
Five of them have been
shipped to Moscow.
The turbine drill itself is a
major advance developed by
the industry in the last five
years. Spinning at 100000
revolutions per minute, COM
pared to 5000 for the old type
burrs, it requires only a feath-
er touch and gets the job done
quickly.
