The dental handpiece of today is a sophisticated combination of precision parts moving in perfect synchronization at extremely high speed. A handpiece is a device for holding rotating instruments, transmitting power to them, and for positioning them intraorally. A dental handpiece is fundamental tool in dentistry. A dental handpiece has literally shaped the dentistry as we know it. Today’s clinician is extremely dependent on the handpiece to sustain a smooth-running practice. The handpiece is an incredibly sophisticated device that requires a diligent maintenance protocol to keep it running properly and safely. The leap from belt driven to air driven hand piece was a major breakthrough because it overcame slow speed, time spent on tooth preparation, pressure and vibration of belt driven handpieces. Dentistry has seen the development in cutting tools from 5000rpm - 300000rpm. Initial days of low-speed turbine arm to high-speed handpiece and then electric and laser handpieces.
