allowing you to enjoy LED technology regardless of the motor or coupling you are using. Only purchase handpieces
that adhere to current regula- tions for health and safety and those that are both thermo- washer disinfectable and sterilisable. Good quality handpieces,
made by good quality manu- facturers, are easy to recognise and should be supplied with at least a one-year warranty as standard. It has been proven over many years of research that the higher the quality of the handpiece, the superior the performance over longer periods of time. It is therefore worth investing
wisely and looking after your investment. If the handpiece or manufacturer chosen does not meet the above criteria, then it is not likely to offer long-term value for money. To prolong the useful life of your hand- pieces and to protect both the
patient and the team from the risk of cross contamination, it is important that the dental team follow a strict infection control regime. When selecting your hand-
piece, it is worth identifying whether the manufacturer
can meet all your needs, whether they are able to offer a full range of products, local service support, care and maintenance training and the appropriate solutions for decontamination. You should be given guidance on the prod-
ucts available to assist you in looking after your handpieces, such as automatic handpiece care systems like the Assis- tina which provides a fast and effective cleaning and lubrica- tion procedure. So, when investing in
your practice, you should be making the right decisions to maximise the safety of your team by not asking them to manually clean contaminated sharp instruments. Therefore it is prudent to invest in a thermo-washer disinfector dryer such as the ThermoK- lenz from W&H to support your decontamination regime. Remember, you get what you
pay for so it is always worth- while making a sound investment and purchasing a well-established, well supported brand known for quality and reliability. You are responsible for the safety of your team, so don’t let them take risks. Invest for a safer, more efficient future.
