Charlotte, NC - (10/3/2025) – KaVo Dental understands the value clinicians place in well performing instruments. Whether it be the need for consistent power or predictability of a concentrically spinning bur, customers have grown to expect a level of superior performance from their KaVo handpieces, making us the market leader in North America and globally.
Proper maintenance is essential in maintaining the performance and durability of dental handpieces and we continue to investigate ways to improve the process and prolong the life of our instruments. After extensive testing, we are excited to announce a full endorsement of RiteWipe handpiece cleaning wipes as approved for use in the processing and sterilization of KaVo handpieces.
Designed in accordance with CDC guidelines and ADS recommendations, RiteWipe handpiece wipes fit perfectly into the instrument processing protocol by effectively removing debris and bioburden prior to sterilization without introducing harsh disinfectant chemicals that can cause corrosion of metal components. Studies have shown 70% of handpiece failures exhibit signs of oxidation or rusting, ultimately affecting the performance of the moving components.
The dental handpiece is the workhorse in a dental office. When customers invest in KaVo handpieces, they expect performance and quality. We believe utilization of RiteWipe handpiece cleaning wipes, along with a QUATTROcare maintenance system, prior to sterilization creates the optimal maintenance protocol to ensure the performance and life of a handpiece.
