ABSTRACT:
A dental instrument with an instrument part (I) and a handle part (1, 1', 1") as well as a number of countable elements (2, 2', 4) which can be individually attached to or removed from the handle part (1, 1', 1"). With each use of the instrument, the dentist is able to remove or attach one element from/to the handle part (1, 1', 1"). The number of countable elements (2, 2', 4) on the handle (1, 1', 1") provides the dentist with an indication of the number of completed uses made with the instrument, so that it can be disposed of before it is subject to stress failure during use.
