When Dr. Mark Hyman started using the KaVo MASTERmatic handpiece and short motor combination, he wanted to enjoy all the innovative features of the device. What he did not expect was to enjoy more dental services.
The dental handpiece "has a lot of different things to make it great - the smoothness of cutting and preparation, and the predictability of preparation. You also have a better experience for patients because they are not shaken by irregular cuts. As a practitioner, your hand fatigue is also lower," explained Dr. Hyman. "All of this has a huge impact on enjoying what you are doing and enjoying dental services."
Dr. Hyman began using electronic dental handpieces 10 years ago. He described his practice and his practice as "amazing." In a recent treatment, he needed to use an old handpieces to adjust something for his patients in the clinic and struggled with cutting and even the feeling of a dental handpiece.
"I remember thinking, 'How could I use this for so many years?' So I have to admit that I have been spoiled," he said.
Optimize comfort and efficiency for your practice
The KaVo electric high-speed dental handpiece is designed to maximize the clinician's ergonomics and productivity. Using KaVo's unique Plasmatec coating and Triple Gear system, dentists enjoy all the features of other electric handsets, but with quiet and low vibration capabilities. Dr. Heymann appreciated these benefits, as well as KaVo's commitment to innovation.
"I think the KaVo dental handpiece I used a few years ago was the best ever, and then they built a better accessory - MASTERmatic. I like this innovation, I like to know that a company I'm working with will keep trying Do better things, "he said.
In his family practice, he did a lot of makeup and restoration dentistry from children to grandparents. The small head of MASTERmatic can easily handle patients with smaller mouths (such as children). The smaller head size and patent angle allow clinicians to work around different facial angles that are difficult or nearly impossible to obtain with traditional handpieces.
“For many dentists, when you have to stay away from wisdom teeth or the distal end of a 12-year molar, and people have large cheeks, they feel frustrated,” Dr. Hyman said. "You work forever, bump and cut your cheeks, then you have trouble entering and you can expect all the tooth decay."
Dr. Heymann described his handpiece as the main force for the production of "bread and butter" dentistry for his practice. He appreciates how this design allows him to focus on the patient's treatment, not whether the dental handpiece is executed or not. This benefit can improve the efficiency of his practice, which is a crucial indicator for clinicians today.
"I have seen it estimate that you are saving 10 minutes per hour in preparation. This is 80 minutes a day," he explained. “Look at what you do every day, think about where you can get an hour? I said at a seminar for other professionals: You only have time. If you invest in high quality equipment, then you Working hours per day is one hour longer than some of our colleagues. "
