ABSTRACT:
The drive assembly for a dental sonic scaler is disconnected from a scaling tip assembly and is then withdrawn from a surrounding tubular handle/sheath. This allows the sheath to be sterilized, after use, while the drive assembly, not needing sterilization, can be easily connected to another sheath, by way of a quick-disconnect joining the components. A tubular seal between the tip assembly and the sheath prevent the drive assembly from being contaminated during use of the scaler.
