This category includes handheld, battery-powered dental handpieces designed for use in oral hygiene procedures. They feature an integrated electric motor, a chuck or collet to attach rotary endpieces such as polishing brushes, and user controls via push buttons, and are intended for cleaning and polishing teeth during dental treatments.
These devices are reusable cordless instruments where the handpiece itself is designed for multiple uses after appropriate cleaning and sterilization, while the rotary endpieces are typically single-use and not included with the handpiece. They are regulated as medical devices based on their intended use and design, with classification depending on the jurisdiction and specific risk assessment.
