ABSTRACT:
A sterilizer is described that applies ultraviolet light to dental instruments such as slow and fast handpieces, picks, etc., which applies the light largely uniformly to the forward portions of the instruments which are used in patients' mouths. The apparatus includes a plurality of supports (21-24) that are each constructed to hold a dental instrument, with the supports each rotatably mounted on a frame about a different vertical axis (31-34). An ultraviolet light source (18) directs light primarily horizontally at the forward portions of the dental instruments to sterilize them.
