SAN FRANCISCO, CA, USA: KaVo Dental North America has a new handpiece that combines the benefits of an air model with those of an electric one. According to KaVo, the COMFORTdrive 200 XDR high-speed handpiece featuring patented micro-motor technology is the “most innovative high-speed ever.”

According to KaVo, the COMFORTdrive offers precise cutting performance with exceptional bur concentricity to assist with faster and smoother preps. The no-bur-stall feature of COMFORTdrive improves efficiency in gross reductions and crown and bridge preparations. The SAFEdrive technology features an integrated sterilizable motor that delivers 30 watts of constant power for consistent performance.

The handpiece was one of many new products by KaVo and Pelton & Crane that were showcased during a press reception held for members of the media during the recent CDA Presents the Art and Science of Dentistry, held in San Francisco 10-13 September.

Also new are the Helios 3000 LED Operating Light and the AeroPure vacuum and compressor from Pelton & Crane.
