Classification of dental handpieces

Dental handpieces are divided into ordinary dental handpieces and disposable dental handpieces. Among them, disposable dental handpieces solve the problems of handpiece disinfection and high maintenance costs in oral clinical treatment.

During the dental treatment, the surface and pipelines may be contaminated by pathogenic microorganisms to varying degrees after use. In the process of dental treatment, mucous membrane, and skin damage are generally caused. Many blood-borne and infectious diseases are spread through contact with wounds of dental high-speed turbines that are not strictly sterilized.

The dental high-speed handpieces are manufactured precisely and have a complex structure. Some complicated cavities and pipelines are difficult to penetrate in the turbine chamber, water and air passages, and other accessories in the nose. These special structures are easy to pollute and difficult to thoroughly sterilize during the suck-back process caused when the dental handpiece is shut down.
