 Handpieces In Dentistry
2017/2018
 High Speed  Low Speed
 Handpieces In Dentistry
2017/2018
 High-speed Handpiece head sizes
 Latch head component of Low- speed Handpieces
 High-speed Handpieces turbine assembly
 High speed handpieces
2017/2018
 Types:-
 Borden 2-hole or 3-hole
 Standard 4-hole
 Standard 6-hole
 High speed handpieces
2017/2018
 The disadvantage:- is the exhaust air from the rotor escapes
of the connection side of the turbine or air motor and this air
can be felt on the user’s hand.
 High speed handpieces
2017/2018
 The advantage:-is no lose in performance and both air
supllies can be adjusted separately.
 High speed handpieces
2017/2018
 The advantage:-: has tubes for drive and exhaust air as well as
separate spray connections.
 High speed handpieces
2017/2018
 The advantage:-: has connection to contacts through which
alight can be operated which allowing optimal lighting of the
treatment area.

 Autoclave
 The Autoclave
2017/2018
 An autoclave is a pressure chamber used
to sterilize equipment
 Temperature of autoclave 121 °C for around 15–20 minutes
 The pressure is 1.2 bar
 What can be autoclaved
2017/2018
 Surgical Instruments
 Glassware
 Plastic tubes and pipette tips
 Solutions and water
 Animal food and bedding
 Waste
 Principles of Autoclave Operation
2017/2018
 Steam affects on objects in the autoclave .
 Condensation creates negative pressure and draws in
additional steam .
 Moist heat kills microorganisms via coagulation of proteins .
 Two types of autoclaves
 Gravity Displacement
 Vacuum/Gravity Assisted
 Spectrophotometer

Centrifuge
 Speeds of motor
2017/2018
 Low to Medium - up to 10,000 rpm
 High Speed – up to 21,000 rpm
 Ultra speed – up to 90,000 rpm or more
 Overspeed dial: prevents running rotor
too fast
