Low maintenance

BA Ultimate high-speed turbines contain high-precision ball bearings inside the head that require cleaning and lubricating on a regular basis. All handpieces in the range are suitable for washer disinfectors and autoclaves for easier and quicker sterilisation. The titanium body on the BA Ultimate Power+ turbines can withstand chemicals and the sterilisation process better than chrome plate. Prior to sterilisation, all handpieces can be easily lubricated individually using spray oil or simultaneously in under 20 seconds using the BA Ultimate CL0 automatic lubrication unit.

Patient safety

All good turbines should have sufficient cooling features to reduce the heat produced by the friction between the bur and tooth surface. Excessive heat transfer can result in inflammation and necrosis of the pulp. Most electric contra-angles now have built in coolant ports to spray water at the bur-tooth surface to improve cooling efficiency and minimise pulp injury. All BA Ultimate turbines come with quadruple (4-port) spray for optimal cooling.

Fibre optics

Fibre optics is a standard feature on all BA Ultimate high-speed turbines. Fibre optic transillumination is a proven diagnosis tool that has been tried and tested over many years and which does not require the support of digital technology. Among the long list of clinical procedures that can benefit from the use of fibre optics are identifying inter-proximal caries, calculus detection and evaluation of staining depth.

Compatibility

BA Ultimate turbines are available with 5 different connections and are therefore suitable for most dental chair tubing. These connections are Kavo, NSK, Sirona, W&H and Bien Air. BA adaptors and couplings are also available to ensure perfect compatibility.
