The Benefits Of Automated Handpiece Lubrication

Dental handpieces are a costly investment and every dental practice could benefit from having a simplified protocol to ensure the proper care and maintenance of their handpiece inventory.

Poorly maintained dental handpieces can compromise the quality of performance, lead to potential health and safety risks and can cause costly and time-consuming repairs.

It is important to follow the maintenance recommendations of the handpiece manufacturer but almost universally they recommend handpieces are lubricated, purged and chuck maintenance performed on both highspeed and speed increasing red band contra angle handpieces.

Automating handpiece maintenance provides precise and consistent lubrication and purging of handpieces which ensures optimal performance and longevity, increases efficiency as multiple handpieces can be lubricated in one cycle and can significantly reduce the amount of lubricant required.

Morita’s Lubrina 2, with programmable maintenance modes, can effectively and efficiently perform purging and lubrication of 4 handpieces (highspeed or contra angle), automatically. The new Clean Air- Blow function with double-conduit design, ensures residual water is removed from the handpiece prior to oiling, maximising lubrication results. The Clean Air-Blow also effectively removes any surplus oil prior to bagging and autoclaving your handpiece.

The Lubrina 2 is the cornerstone of a standardised, efficient and effective handpiece maintenance protocol for dental practices, minimising maintenance costs and maximising handpiece longevity.

Irradiance vs. Power: Curing Light Performance

Irradiance vs. Power: Curing Light Performance

As curing light technology improves, dentists are consistently sold on irradiance (mw per cm2) as being the defining factor in beam effectiveness. While there is no doubt irradiance adds value, it does not tell the full story of how well a light will cure various materials. Irradiance tests typically only show the irradiance of a very small portion of the light. Measuring the power distributed over the entire beam tells a more comprehensive story of its curing capabilities.

The right pH for both the patient and the dental practitioner

The right pH for both the patient and the dental practitioner
A 2004 study showed that patients judge their dental practitioner first and foremost on their skill in giving pain-free injections. Injections do not have to be something to fear – on the contrary, they can be the first step in a relationship of trust with the practitioner.
