- A 45-degree speed-increasing electric contra-angle handpiece designed for surgical and high-access operative procedures, specifically engineered to provide access to hard-to-reach areas, such as the third molar region, where standard contra-angles may struggle
Uses
- Third-Molar Extractions:
- The 45-degree head angle is optimized for accessing and sectioning impacted third molars
- Surgical Procedures:
- Used for various oral surgeries requiring high torque and specialized access without obstructing the surgical site
- High-Speed Operative Work:
- Serves as a speed-increasing attachment (1:4.2 ratio) for universal electric motor systems to perform high-speed cutting tasks.
Features
- 1:4.2 Speed Increase:
- Boosts motor speed to reach a maximum of approximately 168,000 RPM
- 45-Degree Head Angle:
- Provides a slim form factor for superior visibility and reach in posterior areas of the mouth
- Two-Way Quattro Spray:
- Features a customizable spray system where clinicians can choose between mist or jet spray for optimal cooling
- Rear Exhaust System:
- Designed to expel air out of the back of the handpiece, which minimizes the risk of air embolism during surgery compared to traditional air-driven handpieces
- Titanium and Stainless Construction:
- Built with lightweight titanium and stainless steel, making it roughly 30% lighter than standard stainless steel models
- Fiber-Optic Support:
- Equipped with glass rod optics to illuminate the treatment area
Benefits
- Improved Access and Visibility:
- The angled design creates more space between the handpiece body and adjacent teeth, allowing for better operability in tight spaces
- Patient Safety:
- By eliminating chip-air into the surgical site, the VM45L significantly reduces the risk of subcutaneous emphysema and air embolisms
- Efficiency:
- Consistent electric power and high torque allow for faster sectioning, reducing overall treatment time and patient stress
- Universal Compatibility:
- Fits all standard ISO E-type electric motor systems, including brands like KaVo, NSK, Sirona, and Bien Air
