Description
A high speed or low speed powered handpiece used by dentists and oral surgeons to remove carious tissue, prepare cavities, and contour bone during extractions and implant site preparation; features include variable speed, irrigation, and interchangeable burs. Proper technique, cooling irrigation to prevent thermal injury, and infection control sterilization between patients are essential to preserve tooth and bone health and to prevent cross contamination. Dental handpieces are integral to operative dentistry and oral surgery and require routine maintenance and lubrication for reliable performance.
