TRUE ENDO AIROTOR HANDPIECE

Dental Air-Rotor Handpiece Details

• Product Type: This is a high-speed dental handpiece, often called a turbine or air-rotor. It's a fundamental tool in dentistry, primarily used for quickly and precisely cutting or shaping tooth structure (enamel and dentin) during procedures like cavity preparation, crown cutting, and old filling removal.

• Mechanism: It operates by using compressed air to spin a small turbine (the "rotor") at very high speeds, typically between 250,000 and 400,000 revolutions per minute (RPM).

• Bur Attachment: The small pin you see at the head is a bur (drill bit) which is the actual cutting instrument. This bur is removable and replaceable.

• Design/Features (Based on Filename):

  • "TRUE ENDO": The "Endo" likely suggests it may be designed for or compatible with endodontic (root canal) procedures, although high-speed air-rotors are less common for the primary cleaning/shaping phase of a root canal, which typically uses slow-speed or electric motors. It might refer to its use in access opening.

  • "WITHOUT LED": This confirms the handpiece does not have an integrated fiber optic light source. Illumination would come from an external light source (like the overhead operatory light).

  • Connection: The threaded end at the bottom is where the handpiece connects to the dental unit's hose (the tubing that delivers air and water). The number of holes/ports inside this connection determines the coupling type (e.g., 2-hole, 4-hole, or a quick-disconnect swivel type).

• Material and Shape: It has a sleek, metallic, often chrome-plated finish for durability and sterilization. The body is contoured for an ergonomic grip, and the slight angle allows the dentist better access to all areas of the patient's mouth.

TRUE ENDO" is the specific brand/line, often implying it's also suitable for precision procedures like endodontic access openings.
