       • B. Modified / Hybrid
     • II. Engine-Driven ins.
       • Classification of contra-angle handpiece
         • Acc. to type of motion
           • Rotary (full rotary)
             • f(x)
               • 1. Funnel out orifices 2. Widen coronal 2/3 3. Prepare post space
             • Used with
               • I. Gates-glidden drill
               • II. Peeso reamer
               • III. Orifice Opener
               • IV. Rotary Ni-Ti ins.
           • Non-rotary
             • 1. Reciprocating / quarter turn
               • makes 1/4 turn motion at 3000 rpm
             • 2. Vertical stroke + quarter turn
               • Driven by air / electricity
               • Vertical stroke motion ranging 0.3-1mm & 1/4 turn motion
             • 3. Sonic & ultrasonic
               • Def : Handpiece that move near / faster than speed of sound
               • Use Standard K-file or special brouch like ins.
               • Advantages: i. RC better debrided ii. Bacterial kill more readily iii. less Post-O pain iv. No bulky head obstruct vision
               • Disadvantages: i. Roughness produce if touch RC wall ii. No cutting action
         • Acc. to power supply
           • Air driven
           • Electrical driven
           • Portable engine (battery charged)
       • Disadv.
         • 1. Loss of tactile sensation 2. Ledge formation 3. Ins. separation
