Provided is a torque wrench for an implant procedure including: a first body having a predetermined length, and including a head portion having an end to which a torque wrench driver bit is coupled; at least one second body having a predetermined length, provided at one side of the first body, and including a coupling portion formed in a longitudinal direction thereof; and a second shaft rotatably coupled to the coupling portion of the second body, including a second gear provided at one end thereof and a knob provided at the other end thereof, and configured such that, in response to rotation of the knob, the second shaft transmits torque to the torque wrench driver bit through the first gear engaged with the second gear.

A root canal therapy device with a mechanical vibration mode and a rotation drive mode includes a head, a handle, a first flexible drive shaft and a second flexible drive shaft. The head includes an outer main part, a mandrel part for mounting a root canal file, a first drive input shaft part and a second drive input shaft part. The mandrel part is mounted in the outer main part. A first drive motor and a second drive motor are disposed on the handle. The invention has the following beneficial effects: the root canal file can rotate and vibrate during root canal preparation, so that the wall of a root canal is efficiently cut by the file; and the file can also vibrate, so that cutting resistance and cutting temperature are effectively reduced, a smear layer is avoided, and the quality and efficiency of root canal preparation are improved.

In some embodiments, the current invention relates to a method and/or system for using a standard dental handpiece for endodontic cleaning. For example, a dental adapter is disclosed having a fitting for a standard dental handpiece, a torque limiter and/or a mount for an endodontic file. For example, the adapter may be single use and/or multi use. In some embodiments, the mount includes the torque limiter. For example, an endodontic file may be connected to the mount with a friction fitting that allows rotation of the file with respect to the mount at high torque. Optionally the mount is positioned eccentrically with respect to the fitting.

A medical or dental device for determining a bone's quality by cutting a thread into the bone with a rotating threaded element comprises a control unit having a measurement circuit configured: (i) to determine values of the motor current via a first electrical contact device with which the motor drive is supplied for rotational drive of the threaded element that can be connected to the motor drive, the current values being a measure of the bone's quality; (ii) to monitor and/or to determine the penetration depth of the threaded element into the bone, and (iii) to generate measurement signals which show the relationship between the penetration depth and the determined current values or parameters derived therefrom, and to transmit these signals to a display unit, which displays the relationship between the determined current values or parameters derived therefrom, in particular the bone's quality, and the penetration depth.

The present invention relates to a cutting device (1) for surgical or dental use, comprising a motor (10) connected to a handpiece (4) provided with a transmission module (2) for a cutting tool (3), the transmission module (2) comprising: a motor coupling part arranged to be set in rotation by the said motor (10); a kinematic chain transforming the rotary movement of the motor (10) into a first linear reciprocating movement (M1) of a blade holder (27) via a rotary transmission shaft (22) provided with an eccentric (23),

the transmission module (2) being characterized in that it further comprises a counter-mass (5) arranged so as to move according to a second linear reciprocating movement (M2) synchronized with the first linear reciprocating movement (M1) of the blade holder (27), and in the opposite direction to the latter.

When compressed air does not act, a seal member is in contact with an outer periphery of an inner ring. When the compressed air acts, a contact area between the seal member and the outer periphery of the inner ring is reduced, as compared to when the compressed air does not act. Accordingly, it is possible to provide an air turbine bearing unit capable of promptly stopping rotation.

A multi-directional handpiece that includes a motor drive extending along and configured for rotation about a body axis, the motor drive having: a motor gearing at a proximal end of the motor drive; and a file gearing in engagement with the motor gearing for transferring the rotational and axial movement to a workpiece; and a housing for the workpiece; and wherein through rotation of the motor drive, the workpiece moves in an axial oscillating motion while being rotated.

A dental handpiece control apparatus including: a relay 17 that switches a polarity of a voltage applied to a motor 20, and thereby switches a rotation direction of the motor 20 to forward rotation and backward rotation, the motor 20 being incorporated in the dental handpiece to rotate a cutting tool (a file) mounted to the dental handpiece; and a control section 11 that controls the switching of the voltage polarity by the relay 17 based on a rotation angle θ.sub.F for forward rotation and a rotation angle θ.sub.R for backward rotation of the motor 20, the rotation angle θ.sub.F and the rotation angle θ.sub.R being associated with state information of the file.

A dental implant whereby an osteotomy cavity is formed in jawbone and then a base member of the implant is positioned into the cavity. The base member serves as a platform to secure an abutment member of the implant that in turn receives a dental restoration, such as a crown or denture.

A system and method for compensating for torque reaction forces in a medical, apparatus is disclosed. The astern may include a rotary element which rotates about an axis. A contra-rotating flywheel may be driven to rotate about the axis relative to the rotary element, wherein the flywheel is free to rotate and is accelerated and decelerated by a driver which is fixed to the rotary element. Contra-rotation of the flywheel may compensate for torque reaction forces when the rotary element is accelerated or decelerated.
