Description The LOW SPEED TURBINE HANDPIECE SET GREEN-L-M4 is a standard air-driven dental handpiece system used for slower, less invasive procedures requiring high torque and precision. It includes the three main components that make up a low-speed unit: the air motor, the straight handpiece, and the contra-angle attachment. Key Features and Components This set is essential for a variety of general dentistry procedures, particularly those involving finishing, polishing, and excavation. Component Feature/Design Primary Application Air Motor Features an automatic lubrication system. Powers the entire low-speed unit, rotating the attachments. The automatic lubrication feature helps maintain internal components and prolongs the lifespan. Straight Handpiece Designed with a blue clasp for a more comfortable and secure grip. Used with laboratory burs and straight burs primarily for trimming prosthetics (e.g., acrylics, dentures) or some extra-oral adjustments. Contra-Angle Can use a variety of specialized tools, including polishing brushes, polishing cups, grinding heads, and canal reamers. The angled design allows for better access to hard-to-reach areas in the mouth. It is used for polishing, finishing fillings, caries excavation, and certain endodontic procedures (using canal reamers). Maintenance and Sterilization The product listing emphasizes a crucial three-step process for maintaining the turbine set: Cleaning the Surface: Wiping the body with alcohol cotton and rinsing the outside of the handpiece to remove dirt (tooth powder, blood). The handpiece head must be kept up to avoid flushing the internal components. Internal Lubrication: Connecting the handpiece to a lubricating machine to clean and lubricate the internal mechanisms. Sterilization: The handpiece is placed into a sterile bag and sealed, then subjected to sterilization in a sterilizer (commonly used equipment for 134 °C three pre-vacuum disinfection).
