Why is a dental handpiece called a handpiece?

Jun 28,2025

Hello everyone, I'm Jacky. Today, let's talk about why high-speed dental handpieces are called "handpieces". This "handpiece" is not that "handpiece". Dental handpieces frequently come into contact with patients' saliva, blood, or oral tissues. If not cleaned and disinfected properly, cross-infection is very likely! For dentists, a dental handpiece is a handheld tool that transmits (with or without a converter) the energy needed for dental tools or instruments. Dental handpieces are high-to-moderate risk oral instruments. Dental clinics need to follow the relevant regulations of the "Technical Specifications for Disinfection of Oral Medical Devices": to properly clean, maintain, disinfect, sterilize, and store "handpieces". With fifteen years of production experience, Liangya has high-speed handpieces with anti-back suction function that can prevent saliva and blood from entering the handpiece.
