‌Dental low-speed handpieces are mainly used for grinding and polishing, root canal treatment, caries removal, pulp opening, tooth polishing, gutta-percha tip removal, and fiber post preparation. ‌

Specific uses
‌Grinding and polishing‌: The straight machine of the low-speed handpiece is mainly used for the fine processing and polishing of removable dentures to ensure the comfort and aesthetics of the dentures.
‌Root canal treatment‌: The curved machine is very useful in root canal treatment. It can remove caries, open the pulp, and use a small ball drill to expose the top of the pulp chamber to expand and prepare the root canal.
‌Other operations‌: The low-speed handpiece can also be used for tooth polishing, gutta-percha tip removal, and fiber post preparation. These operations usually do not require water spraying, so the low-speed handpiece generally has no waterway or adopts an external waterway design.
