Handpieces serve as workhorses in dental practices, making it critical for dentists to fi nd options that work well in their hands. The Maxima Advanced High-Speed Air Handpiece from Henry Schein has become a go-to for many dental professionals, and when you look at its list of features, it’s easy to see why.
Optimal cutting power, quiet operation, aerosol reduction, an antislip grip, Active-Stop Technology, and a versatile rpm range are among the handpiece’s most sought-after features. It provides high cutting power and smooth operation for shorter, more efficient procedures—getting patients out of the chair and on with their day faster while allowing dentists to see more patients.
Dr. Christina Tran has seen that play out in her practice. She explained that compared to other handpieces, Maxima Advanced offers improved cutting and speed, allowing her “to prep faster and decrease the amount of time the patient is in the chair.”
Less Noise for a Better Experience
No one—dental team members and patients included—likes a noisy handpiece. Hand-piece chatter can be stressful for patients who may already be nervous about treatment, as well as disruptive and bothersome for team members.
Henry Schein took that to heart when designing Maxima Advanced, giving it a 12% reduction in noise compared to the previous model.
Dr. Nate Lewis, who tried out the Maxima Advanced in hopes of finding a quieter handpiece, discovered, “It’s comparable with my [current handpiece brand] and better than other brands.”
