Why this term matters
- Use it to understand where care may take place.

- Write down the agreed next step before booking.

Portable dental equipment
Equipment designed to be transported for assessment or selected care outside a fixed clinic. Its availability does not make every procedure suitable at home; power, water, lighting, positioning, infection control and referral access still matter.
