ABSTRACT:
A device for disinfecting dental drills having an air turbine motor, or like handpiece, includes a housing having air and water passages extending therein for coupling a flexible supply hose to the handpiece. A first conduit extends from the housing and provides a passageway in fluid communication with the pressurized air inlet passageway of the dental handpiece leading to the air turbine motor. The conduit includes a cap releasably secured to the end of the conduit. The nozzle of a disinfectant reservoir may be inserted within the conduit after temporarily removing the cap for permitting the nozzle to be advanced through the housing and into the handpiece for disinfecting the air passages leading to and from the turbine motor. A second conduit extends from the housing and communicates with the water passage of the housing. The nozzle of the disinfectant reservoir may be inserted into the second conduit, after removing its cap, to disinfect the water passage extending through the dental handpiece. Pressurized air and water may then be passed through the air and water passages, respectively, to remove any remaining disinfectant before using the drill with another patient.
