- A fiber-optic, 1:1 gear ratio, low-speed dental contra-angle handpiece featuring an internal water spray system
Uses
- Enhanced Visibility Procedures:
- Used for all standard low-speed applications (polishing, caries removal, finishing restorations) where integrated light is needed for better visualization
- Finishing and Polishing:
- Ideal for precise work on crowns, bridges, and composite fillings
- Prophylaxis:
- Provides excellent control and light for hygiene procedures when used with compatible prophy angle attachments
- Endodontics and Implant Maintenance:
- Its controlled speed and illumination make it suitable for delicate procedures requiring high precision
Features
- Integrated Fiber Optics:
- Features a glass rod fiber optic system to provide direct illumination to the treatment site, improving visibility
- 1:1 Gear Ratio:
- Operates at the same speed as the attached motor (e.g., up to 20,000 RPM when paired with the AM1011 motor), indicated by a blue color code
- Internal 1-Hole Water Spray:
- Includes a single-port internal coolant system for wet procedures, which helps manage heat generation
- Universal Compatibility:
- Designed with the industry-standard ISO E-Type connection and specifically to fit the KaVo INTRAmatic connector system, allowing use across various electric or air-driven motors
- Autoclavable:
- Fully sterilizable via steam autoclave (up to 275°F/135°C) to ensure high standards of hygiene and infection control
- Interchangeable Heads:
- The handpiece body can be paired with different compatible heads, such as the Vector KV68 Latch Head Angle 1:1 or Vector KV80 Lowspeed Angle Head Friction Grip
Benefits
- Superior Visibility:
- The fiber optic lighting provides a clear, bright view of the operational field, reducing eye strain and improving clinical accuracy
- Patient Comfort and Safety:
- The internal water spray minimizes frictional heat, reducing the risk of pulpal injury and increasing patient comfort during procedures
- Value and Performance:
- Offers a high-quality, durable alternative to more expensive national brands, providing comparable performance and reliability
- Seamless Integration:
- "Plug-and-play" functionality with existing universal E-Type or INTRAmatic systems means no modifications or extra parts are needed for use
