Sirona Dental Systems, the world’s only full-line dental equipment manufacturer, introduced its SIRONiTi endodontic handpiece to the U.S. dental market this fall. A highly cost-effective solution for root canal preparation, the SIRONiTi demonstrates Sirona’s commitment to affordable, innovative dental technology. Suitable for all standard nickel-titanium file systems, the unit can perform at five different torque control levels that can easily be set directly on the handpiece. Set the correct torque level in accordance with the delivered Torque CARDs by turning the pre-select ring on the contra-angle, and the SIRONiTi is up and running.
The “heart” of the SIRONiTi handpiece is a gold-plated magnetic coupling with its unique “retro-rotation” function. If the torque limit is exceeded, SIRONiTi gently prevents the file from becoming jammed in the root canal by gradually disengaging the coupling. The power is cut off gently, not abruptly, and without any intervention by the user. This ensures fast and safe working. As with all Sirona dental equipment, the SIRONiTi is ergonomically designed to allow for maximum dentist comfort.
“We believe the SIRONiTi technology offers dentists the best combination of safety, simplicity and efficiency, ” said Michael Leadlove, Marketing and Sales Manager for Sirona’s Handpiece division. “In addition to offering enormous time savings, the SIRONiTi handpiece significantly reduces the risk of file breakage. Our clinical tests, performed in cooperation with the Department of Conversation and Parodontology, Rheinisch Friedrich-Wilhelm University in Bonn, Germany, confirm that the superior quality and functionality of the SIRONiTi outperform existing benchtop endodontic units.”
Cost effective measures are built into SIRONiTi with a durable, gold-plated magnet coupling. Further, the SIRONiTi is competitively priced, attaches directly to the electric motor and therefore does not require the purchase of a separate benchtop unit.
