What’s the difference between dental handpiece repair and maintenance?

Dental handpiece repair is the actual repairing of the handpiece, or an element of it that is either completely broken, or is not performing as well as it should do.

Maintenance is a more routine procedure and is either an after care service or an individual service that has been paid for to ensure that dental handpieces are performing at the optimum level.

Handpiece repairs will focus only on the part of the handpiece that is at fault, whereas maintenance means that the handpiece will be examined in its entirety to assess all components are in full working order. If it is found that any repairs are needed at this stage, then they can be carried out before the problem becomes too great.

Maintenance of dental handpieces is highly recommended to ensure future repair costs are kept to a minimum for the sake of both the practice and the safety of the patient.

How much are you likely to pay for dental handpiece repair and maintenance?

The cost for dental handpiece repair and maintenance will vary depending on the actual repair and how many handpieces need to be repaired. There are also many other variables that will have an impact on cost, such as the type of turbine the handpiece has and whether yours is a high or low speed motor.

Whatever the reason for needing handpiece repair, many repair companies are happy to give you an estimate once they have established the problem with the handpiece, and others will give set prices for particular repairs. Often, discounts will be given if repairs are needed for multiple dental handpieces.

Annual maintenance deals can be negotiated with dental equipment companies, and again the price varies depending on the level of cover that you require, what pieces of equipment you want to be covered, and how many. Feel free to send me your dental handpiece for inspection and to receive a quote. You can ship it to me free using the free shipping label found HERE and I will send you over a quote for the repair. All of this will be at no charge to you. You will only pay if you decide to have me proceed with the quoted repair of your dental handpiece.

Important tips to safely ship dental handpieces for repair

/in /by

When shipping dental handpieces for repair, ensure that each piece is securely packaged and that it is impossible for any sharp pieces to break through the packaging to avoid potential injury, and further damage to the handpiece.

If more than one handpiece is to be shipped, it is advisable that each one is wrapped separately so that they are easily identified, and so that they cannot bang against each other in transit and cause further damage.

Make sure that adequate labeling is in each parcel so that our handpiece repair team knows exactly where the handpieces have come from in order to facilitate easy and prompt return. A brief description of the fault (if known) can also be useful.

Remember that we offer free shipping on all dental handpiece repairs and even just for diagnosing and quoting you on the possibility of repair. I’m looking forward to working with you. Thank you for trusting The Dental Handpiece Repair Guy for your dental handpiece repair.

Signs that your dental handpiece isn’t functioning properly

/in /by

Dental handpiece repair is important to consider if you are experiencing any of the following issues with your dental hand piece.

The bur on a dental handpiece needs to suit the practitioner perfectly for the best results. If the practitioner notices any deviation in the usual performance of the bur, it can be assumed that the handpiece is not functioning properly and must be attended to. Vibrations, loss of torque or any other unusual occurrences should be attended to immediately.

Another warning sign that your dental handpiece is not functioning properly is if it gets too hot during use. This could be due to ineffective lubrication and could mean that the bearings and other vital parts are corroded. This can have severe consequences on the life span of the handpiece.

If you feel your dental handpiece might be up for maintenance or repair, don’t hesitate to send it to me, the dental handpiece repair guy. I will look it over and let you know what services need to be performed and will send you over a quote at no charge. At that point you can tell me if you want to move forward with the suggested maintenance or repair work. Best of all, shipping is free!

With regulatory bodies and spot checks used in order to ensure hygiene is kept high, it’s important that you have the right equipment to maintain and clean your dental handpieces. If tools aren’t properly sterilized and treated in between appointments, it will be possible for infections to spread between patients, and for your hard-earned reputation to be tarnished.

Contacting The Dental Handpiece Repair Guy today will empower you with the service you deserve: all of your equipment fixed (with advice on how to keep it in top condition) in a quick turnaround.

Reduce your overhead and save money with dental handpiece repair.

Business is quite challenging at the moment, and we are all trying to protect our hard-earned dollars. So: instead of buying a new dental handpiece after your trusty one breaks down, why not consider enlisting the help of a professional handpiece repair person to fix it for you?

Did you also know that handpiece repairs from dedicated professionals can also come with up to a six-month warranty? This way, in the unlikely event that a repair doesn’t live up to your expectations, there won’t be unwanted damage to your business’ wallet.

Dental Handpiece Repair and Maintance

How Should I Maintain My Handpiece?

Are you confused about handpiece maintenance?
That’s understandable. Recommendations vary and seem to change regularly. A good policy is to follow the manufacturer’s recommendations.

Also remember —”If it works – don’t fix it!” —That is if you have been both consistent and successful with your maintenance procedures, you probably don’t need to change. However, if problems persist you may want to closely review your maintenance procedures.

Note: If you are using maintenance free bearings in your handpieces the spindle still requires cleaning and lubrication once a week.
