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?

This means you can receive your equipment back, good as new, for a fraction of the cost. Repairing a handpiece with experts involves more than fixing what is broken. The RPM needs to be checked, in addition to air pressure and the noise coming from the unit. Any parts that could be anticipated as becoming faulty in the near future can be replaced or fixed quickly and efficiently, eliminating the cost of further maintenance in months to come.

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.

Maintaining your dental handpieces properly will help ensure that your dental handpieces will last longer and ensure that the time between repair dates is lengthened. Here are five top tips to keep your tools in prime condition.

Always read and follow the manufacturers instructions before use.
Cleaning your handpiece is something that needs to be done carefully, and with certain materials. You should not use tap water or cleaning solutions, you need to use distilled water or alcohol to clean the exterior properly.
When sterilizing, do not heat above 135/275 degrees C and do not operate until the handpiece has reached room temperature.
When sterilizing always remove the bur and always store with a bur or bur blank to protect the chucking mechanisim. And never operate the handpiece without the bur inserted.
Specifications vary, however typically air pressure should not exceed 32 PSI for high-speed handpieces and 45 PSI for low-speed handpieces.
