BlueTip, the new sound-activated rinsing tip by Komet, makes the irrigation of root canals simple, fast and safe. Lemgo, May 29, 2026 – In endodontics, cleaning and disinfecting the root canal system with as little residue as possible is a crucial factor for the success of the treatment. Since bacteria and the tissue that forms their breeding ground can be reduced very effectively by the sound-activated rinsing tip. Komet makes it easy, quick, and safe for users of BlueTip to achieve better cleaning results. Optimized contrast for easier cleaning BlueTip, the flexible rinsing tip made of polyamide, is more than just another addition to the range of perfectly coordinated high-quality instruments provided by the medical device manufacturer located in Lemgo, Germany. Above all, the blue color of the instrument significantly increases visibility in the canal as it contrasts clearly with the dentin.The blue color of the BlueTip facilitates the insertion of the tip into the canal without bending it. During the rinsing process, it is easier to see whether the tip is oscillating freely or touching the canal walls. In addition, adhering debris or remnants of a medicated insert are more clearly visible and can be removed if necessary. This reduces blockages and makes it easier to remove residues.This is all the more important as a root canal that is as residue-free as possible supports successful obturation and decisively contributes to the long-term success of the treatment. A positive side effect is that the BlueTip is easy to recognize on the tray and is always ready to hand. Save time with “sonic speed“ BlueTip can be conveniently inserted into a standard sonic handpiece and activates the rinsing solution in the root canal. The solution activated in this manner requires a shorter reaction time to be effective, thus saving dentists valuable time. At the same time, the cleaning performance is enhanced. Bacteria, tissue and the smear layer are effectively reduced. BlueTip follows the course of the canal precisely – flexible and delicate BlueTip is made of polyamide to ensure optimum protection of natural tooth substance. Made of flexible synthetic material, the delicate tip follows the course of the canal precisely. This makes it noticeably easier for dentists to minimize the risk of undesirable material removal. In this way, BlueTip helps you to preserve the desired state of the canal anatomy.According to users, the fine polyamide tip fits into almost any canal. Also convenient: there is only one size to suit any application and, thanks to sterile single-use packaging units, there is no need for documentation. This makes integration into everyday practice and beyond extremely easy.BlueTip complements Komet’s endodontic portfolio, so that the complete range of instruments for root canal treatment is now perfectly coordinated and available in the high quality you have come to expect from Komet.

Lemgo, January 5, 2026 – The H4A, Komet’s new amalgam remover, makes the removal of amalgam safe, simple and efficient. The H4A, Komet’s new amalgam remover, makes the removal of amalgam safe, simple and efficient. Whether due to age, damage, caries or for cosmetic reasons – the removal of amalgam fillings is a routine job at any dental practice. In addition to a successful restoration while preserving the natural tooth as much as possible, protecting the patient and practice team from potentially toxic mercury vapors is an absolute priority when it comes to removing amalgam fillings.While amalgam could already be removed quickly and safely with the Komet’s previous amalgam remover H32, Komet is now introducing its successor H4A which makes treatments particularly safe, simple and efficient for users: Specially developed in Lemgo for this very application, this instrument significantly reduces the emission of mercury vapors by 40%* compared to its predecessor. H4A – Sharper equals faster equals safer. With the H4A amalgam remover, the dental specialist based in Lemgo is not only launching a successor to the tried-and-tested H32. The new and improved amalgam remover made by Komet increases user safety by reducing the risk of mercury vapor formation by over a third*.The new amalgam remover owes its significantly higher efficiency to the greater sharpness and the optimized geometry of its blades: the new toothing enables easy, precise penetration into the filling material and a high substance removal rate while demonstrably reducing the formation of mercury vapors. Shorter treatment times and a gentle procedure for amalgam removal. The new amalgam remover in the renowned and proven Komet quality can noticeably shorten treatment times thanks to its capability of removing old fillings in very little time. The difference may be small when looking at each individual treatment, but the times saved adds up to an economically relevant difference at the end of many a day in the practice.The sharp blade has a further advantage for patients: the remaining natural tooth substance can be optimally protected thanks to the outstanding sharpness which equals precision. All in all, Komet’s H4A is a state-of-the-art amalgam remover that further improves an already good instrument thanks to its new and improved geometry. Further improving what’s already good: H4A The constant strive to further improve already outstanding solutions for individual customer requirements is deeply rooted in Komet’s DNA.

Lemgo, September 16, 2025 – With the EnDrive, Komet Dental once again demonstrates its innovative strength: the newly developed endodontic motor has been honored with the Red Dot Design Award 2025. With their award, the international jury recognized a design that is consistently tailored to the requirements of modern dental practices. “EnDrive is an efficient solution for endodontic treatments that cleverly combines intuitive operation, ergonomic design, and cost-effectiveness,” the jury explained in the reasons for their choice. From requirement to solution – the path leading to EnDrive For decades, Komet Dental has been pursuing a clear course: innovations are created in close collaboration with dentists and universities. In 2022, the “New Endo Motor” project was launched and, in just two and a half years, the EnDrive was developed.The new drive unit is consistently geared towards the requirements of the users. Unobstructed work without annoying cables, a touch display, visual feedback via an LED ring, and intuitive controls create space for concentrated and precise work— regardless of the available space or treatment habits. Komet Dental as a driver of innovation Komet Dental has already received awards for its developments in the past and was named a TOP 100 Innovator in 2022. The jury was impressed by innovations in the rotary instrument sector such as SHAX and DIAO, as well as Dentything, the first digital merchandise management system for dental practices and dental laboratories that automatically reorders missing products. This is the result of modern innovation processes and clear customer focus. “The number of root canal treatments is increasing worldwide. As one of the world’s leading and most innovative manufacturers in this field, our goal is to actively shape further developments. With EnDrive, we wanted to do more than just develop a new motor. We created a solution that is perfectly matched to our files and materials and offers dentists genuine safety and freedom in their everyday work.

Lemgo, January 13, 2025 – State-of-the-art motor. Developed to meet customer requirements. EnDrive, Komet’s latest endodontic motor with integrated apex locator and cordless handpiece, is designed to meet the individual requirements and wishes of dentists and endodontic specialists, making their business economical, simple and safe. Tedious manual preparation, reluctance to change habits or invest in future-proof technology, cumbersome software updates, restrictions due to cables that get in the way or expiring battery life as well as inaccurate or delayed apex measurements – endodontic treatments present their users with a variety of personal challenges. Solution for individual requirements “Endo has many requirements. Here is the solution” is the promise that Komet makes to its customers with the latest EnDrive endo motor. The motor, consisting of a compact main unit and a magnetically clip-on handpiece, makes Endos economical, simple and safe. It has been available in Germany since January. Dentists know how important it is in the daily practice routine to provide smooth treatments while at the same time ensuring that the processes involved are as safe as possible. The efficiency of treatments and therefore practice capacity utilization can be increased and costly interruptions and downtime can be avoided if the tool does exactly what it is supposed to do for the user. This is where the EnDrive comes into its own, meeting customers’ requirements and wishes. Economical thanks to efficient treatment processes The new option of convenient software updates via WLAN saves resources, time and effort. The easy-to-use, clearly laid-out 7-inch color and touch display provides all values and controls at a glance, allowing users to focus on the patient instead of the technology. With a maximum battery charging time of 1.5 to 2.5 hours, the EnDrive is always ready for use – if you have forgotten to charge it, the main unit and handpiece can also be charged during treatment. The integrated calibration function ensures that the contra-angle of the EnDrive works optimally and that the set torque is transmitted precisely. There is no need for an additional silicone cover because the contra-angle handpiece is insulated. This conveniently prevents possible incorrect measurements in the event of unintentional contact in the oral cavity – for greater efficiency, fewer treatment breaks and interruptions. Plug and play, convenience and intuitive operation The EnDrive was developed so that users can stick to their habits during work. The comprehensive file library integrates almost all known endo files, including their presets, regardless of whether they are rotary or reciprocating and whether they come from Komet’s large portfolio or from other manufacturers. Users can not only continue to use their favorite files, the EnDrive also memorizes them and makes them available as a preferred choice. Operation is intuitive and requires little training – “plug and play”, so to speak. The battery-operated handpiece also eliminates the need to pull and tug at cables. Thanks to its ergonomics, the handpiece is ideal for both left-handed and right-handed users. It is suitable for delicate work and enables maximum mobility. Its compact dimensions and low weight allow the device to be transported quickly and used on the tray. The main unit can be used in both vertical and horizontal direction, which is a great advantage, as it can be positioned flexibly according to preference and the available space. Simply safe Simplicity without compromise on safety: This includes, for example, the very small contra-angle head, which can be rotated 360° at any time to suit your preference. It guarantees the best possible view of the working area. For the first time, a handpiece provided by Komet can be attached to the motor thanks to a magnetic function. This not only simplifies quick transportation to the next room with just one hand. It also allows the handpiece to be put down quickly and safely, while reducing the risk of contamination. Before the maximum torque value is reached, the new LED ring on the handpiece alerts the user, thus reducing the risk of file fracture. The EnDrive’s auto-stop and auto-reverse functions also minimize the risk of file fracture and therefore treatment delays. The highly precise apex localization helps users to perform the preparation exactly at the right time and in the right place. This reduces the risk of over-preparation. The patented system takes measurements with the utmost precision and in real time while treatment can continue. Thanks to the file clamp supplied, this also works in conjunction with manual files. Driven by customer needs With its wide range of established and new features, the EnDrive lives up to its promise to deliver the best solution for individual customer requirements – a promise that is deeply rooted in Komet’s DNA.

Lemgo, November 25, 2024 – Since its foundation in 1923, Komet has strived to provide excellent service and high-quality products for every step of the dental treatment.
