In response to public health authorities’ growing concern over patient burns caused by rotary dental instruments, Swiss medical technologies company Bien-Air Dental has developed the EVO.15, the safest contra-angle on the market today.

In procedures involving contra-angles, the slightest contact between the instrument’s push-button and the inside of the patient's cheek may cause the instrument to overheat, resulting in possible burn injuries. "While overheating can be an indication of a damaged or clogged instrument, laboratory evaluations reveal that this hazard is just as prevalent in new and properly-maintained handpieces," says Clémentine Favre, Chief Technical Officer. She goes on to specify that the most severe cases have caused third-degree burns requiring reconstructive surgery, and potentially exposing the practitioner to lengthy legal action.

Equipped with patented CoolTouch+™ heat-arresting technology, the EVO.15 is the only contra-angle proven never to exceed human body temperature. After years of research and development, this technology works to protect both the patient and the clinician during some of the profession’s most frequently performed procedures. Additionally, the EVO.15 features a considerably smaller and lighter shockproof head and premieres technological innovations ranging from a new spray/lighting system to an improved bur-locking system. Committed to safety, the EVO.15 gives progressive dental practitioners peace of mind in all situations.
