How many types of Dental High Speed Handpiece are there?

In modern dental clinic, dental high-speed handpieces have become indispensable assistants for dentists and patients due to their high efficiency, precision and versatility. Dental high-speed handpieces, as the name suggests, provide great convenience for dental restorations and root canal treatments with their high-speed rotating characteristics. However, with the continuous progress of technology and the increasingly diversified needs of dental treatment, the variety of dental high-speed handpieces is also growing.

First of all, from the point of view of the connection way, dental high-speed handpieces can be divided into two categories: Those with quick couplings and those without quick couplings. Dental high speed handpieces with quick connectors can be connected and replaced with connecting tubes more quickly, which greatly improves the diagnosis and treatment efficiency. Dental high-speed handpieces without quick couplings are more stable and reliable, and are suitable for some treatment scenarios that require higher connection stability.

Secondly, from the point of view of connection holes, dental high-speed handpieces can be further divided into two-hole, four-hole and fiber optic six-hole handpieces. Two-hole handpieces mainly support the connection of driving gas and water, which is suitable for simple dental treatment operations; four-hole handpieces further increase the connection of return gas, making the treatment process more safe and reliable; and fiber-optic six-hole handpieces are integrated with the connection of driving gas, water, nebulizing gas, return gas and two electrode poles, which is more powerful.

Finally,there are various kinds of dental high-speed handpieces, this article mainly analyzes the difference and use of dental high-speed handpieces from different angles of hole number, head size and classification of handpieces. The following is a detailed classification and induction of the types of dental high-speed handpieces.

What difference about dental high-speed led handpiece and dental high-speed fiber optic handpiece? 

Dental high-speed led handpiece: usually use traditional halogen lamp or LED lamp as a light source. The led handpiece is located outside the handpiece and transmitted to the head of the handpiece through the optical fiber bundle to provide lighting. Maintenance and cleaning can be a little more complicated, as you need to ensure that the fiber bundles are clean and intact.

Dental high-speed optical fiber handpiece: The use of optical fiber technology, LED lights or other light sources directly integrated in the head of the handpiece, providing more direct and efficient lighting. The light source of fiber-optic handpieces is usually brighter and more uniform. Fiber optic handpieces are relatively simple to maintain and clean. Since the light source is located in the head of the handpiece, it is only necessary to clean and maintain the head of the handpiece.

What is the difference between two holes, four holes and six holes in high-speed handpieces?

2 Hole Dental High Speed handpiece:The two-hole design mainly refers to the connection port of the driving gas and water. This design is often used for more basic dental procedures, as it only provides a basic supply of driving gas and water. The structure is simple and suitable for some dental offices or treatment scenarios that do not require complex functions.

Four Hole Dental High speed handpiece:The high-speed handpiece with four-hole design adds atomization function on the basis of providing basic functions, which can be used for cooling and cleaning in the mouth to improve the comfort of the treatment process. In addition, reqigong can also help reduce the risk of contamination and cross-infection during treatment. It is more comprehensive and can provide a more comfortable treatment experience, while also helping to protect the health of patients.

Six-hole high-speed fiber optic cell handpiece: On the basis of four holes, two electrode columns are added, equipped with six-hole optical fiber quick connector, which makes it convenient to switch handpieces and makes the light really bright, providing doctors with a clear working field of vision.

What are the differences and uses of high-speed handpiece head size?

Super torque head handpiece, mainly used in the adult mouth, the big Head dental high-speed handpiece has greater torque and size, making it more efficient when deep cutting and grinding. Therefore, it is more suitable for operations that require vigorous cutting and grinding.

Standard torque head Handpiece,  the Standard Dental high-speed handpiece is suitable for most routine dental procedures and is a common choice for doctors.

Mini torque head handpieces, mainly used in children's mouths, due to their compact size, mini dental high speed handpieces are especially suitable for children, women and other patients with smaller mouths, or when operating on posterior teeth flexibility and small space footprint make it very useful in certain situations.

Due to the size of the head, the strength of the handpiece is also different, and the use is slightly different.

Please note that the above classification only represents the general classification of dental high-speed handpieces, and the specific classification may vary depending on industry standards, manufacturers and usage needs. When choosing a dental high-speed handpiece, it is recommended to choose according to the specific clinical needs and using environment.
