摘要:
A lamp, especially for dental use, comprises: an external casing (1) mounting a light source (2) that generates rays of light in a certain wavelength range; means (3) for directing the light rays generated by the light source (2) in the form of a predetermined beam (F) and towards a desired area; a surface (4) for protecting the front of the light source (2) and of the directing means (3), and through which the light beam (F) passes, to form an element for enclosing the front of the illuminating body or reflector together with the external casing (1); light filtering means (6) acting on the lamp (5) and designed to permit the emission of light radiation limited to predetermined wavelengths to avoid early polymerization of dental preparations; means (7) for enabling and disabling the filtering means (6), located on the lamp (5) and acting on the filtering means (6) when required.

An auxiliary apparatus (1) for dental treatments comprises: a power unit (2) that drives handpieces used for traditional conservative, implant and/or endodontic operations and in turn connected to the unit (2), including a handpiece (5) adapted to impart sonic or ultrasonic vibrations to a file tip (6) used for treating root canals (8); handpiece (5) activation and adjustment means (4) controlled by a microprocessor (7); a unit (9) for measuring a given value (V) of an electrical quantity generated, in combination, by a first pole defined by the tip (6) and a second pole defined by a reference element (10) positioned near the root canal (8); a unit (11) for processing a respective signal (S) sent by the measuring unit (9) as a function of the value (V) of the electrical quantity in such a way as to transduce the signal (S) into a value (H) corresponding to the distance between the tip (6) and the apex of the root canal (8); means (12) for detecting the distance value (H), connected to the processing unit (11) and designed to issue a proportional audio/video signal (S1) as a function of the distance (H) between the tip (6) and the root canal apex.
摘要:
An auxiliary unit (100) for sanitising treatments can be fitted on dental units (R) comprising: a fluid supply line (1) connected, at one end, to the general water mains (2) and, at the other, to the dental unit by means of a first branch (3) which supplies at least a series of instruments - patient (4) and an air supply line (6) connected at its infeed to a source (7) of compressed air and at its outfeed to the dental unit; the unit (100) comprises a body(8), external to the dental unit, supporting at least one container (9) of disinfectant / sterilising fluid which can be connected, by means of a first conduit (10), to the fluid supply line; second means (11) of interception positioned on the fluid supply line (1) and designed to allow closure of the fluid supply at least in the first branch (3) during the treatment using the disinfectant / sterilising fluid; and means (12, 13) for preparing and implementing the treatment, acting at least on the first conduit (10) and on the second means (11) of interception, so as to allow the treatment fluid to pass through the first branch (3).
摘要:
A dental handpiece (1) for use in surgical operations in the oral cavity comprises: a first casing (2) fitted with a tool (3), at least one first conduit (6) for supplying fluid to a second casing (4), the latter having a corresponding second conduit (7) running through it for the fluid; a supplementary third conduit (8) running along the outside of the first and second casings (2,4) and leading to a point close to the tool (3); the handpiece (1) further comprising means (9) for dividing the fluid flow, and connecting the first conduit (6) to the second conduit (7) and to the supplementary third conduit (8), and means (10) for controlling the fluid flow and acting on the second and third conduits (7,8).
摘要:
An apparatus for detecting biofilm in the water conduits of dental units, especially biofilm adhering to the inside surfaces of the conduits, can be used on a water line (1) equipped with a plurality of conduits (2) for supplying fluids to handpieces (3) and fluid consuming units (4) that use fluid from a main supply (5) or accessory fluids from corresponding independent lines (6). A portion (7) of one of the conduits (2) is equipped with means (8) for detecting the presence of the biofilm on the surfaces (7a) of the portion (7) itself. The invention also relates to a method for detecting the biofilm. The method comprises the steps of contacting the biofilm attached to surfaces (7a, 9) with a reagent substance or fluid; altering the biofilm by the reagent substance or fluid; and detecting the alteration that has taken place in the biofilm using the detecting means (8).
摘要:
A control unit for polymerising lamps (1) consists of a control unit (7), which may be independent or part of a dental unit, which controls light generating means (5); said control unit (7) may be programmed in accordance with the power output (P) values of the light generating means (5) and the operating time (T) values of the means (5) at a preset power (P), in accordance with operating parameters which can be preset on the control unit (7), so as to define an operating curve (C) which can be adapted to the operating parameters which emerge each time during treatment.
