C8-4 Geared angle handpiece

A C8-4 geared angle handpiece, from COXO Medical, is a dental slow-speed contra-angle attachment used for specific tasks like endodontic (root canal) treatments, polishing, and precise cavity prep, featuring a characteristic 64:1 gear reduction for high torque and controlled speed.

Key Features & Uses:

• Gear Ratio: Typically 64:1 (as seen in COXO models), meaning it's much slower but provides significantly more torque than a 1:1 or 1:5 handpiece.
• Application: Essential for endodontics (shaping root canals), removing decay, polishing restorations, and prosthetic adjustments.
• Design: A contra-angle design allows better access to posterior teeth and hard-to-reach areas.
• Manufacturer: COXO is a common brand associated with this model, known for providing dental instruments.
