I thought you might be interested in looking at this. My dentist friend has
asked me to try and sell a high end dental drill unit that he used in his
practice for dental implants and cosmetic dentistry. This surgical quality
unit is vintage 1996 and was used for about 8-9 years alternately with a
twin unit ( already sold) by one dentist. As implant surgery is only a part
of his practice, the unit has seen less than average use. It is a Steri-Oss unit,
then manufactured by Bausch and Lomb company.
I have included photos of the unit along with the original flyer. It includes the
programmable console unit, brushless handpiece motor, two contra angled handpieces
that snap into the motor, a spare handpiece head, and foot pedal (on-off) control. The
handpieces included use standard 3/32" dental burs of the contra-angle type.
When new, the console unit with hand motor was $3300.00, while each of the
reduction handpieces were about $900.00 apiece. The beauty of this unit is
that the brushless motor is high torque motor that has rare earth magnets as
the core and therefore, you can drill into a piece of wood and the rpm and
torque stays constant. The motor is autoclavable ( can be sterilized ) and therefore is
completely sealed and is perfect for use in a dusty environment like carving wood.
Both handpieces are gear reduction with ratios of 18:1 and 100:1. The 18:1 handpiece
will run from 170 - 1700 rpm, while the 100:1 handpiece will run from 3 - 300 rpm.
If fitted with an E-Type straight handpiece, ( available on Ebay or at a
dental supply house ), with a 1:1 ratio, the drill will run at 30,000 rpm and
lower. See this web site for the Lynx Nosecone 1:1 ratio at $79.00 ( not
included ), that will do the job.

If fitted with a 1:4 nosecone handpiece, ( not supplied ),
the drill will run up to 39,000 rpm. The unit includes the original instruction manual.
The drill uses standard 3/32" shank burs or 3/32" any 3/32" shank tool.
The price for the entire unit is $700.00 US Funds plus shipping to your location.
Let me know what you think. I have one available. I bought the sister unit.
Thank you to Janel for allowing me to post this.

Bill
