Pascal Magne on Electric Handpieces

There's a LOT to Love About Electrics

But don't take our word for it...

Pascal Magne, a renowned dentist and educator, is no stranger to electric handpieces. His brief Instagram post clearly demonstrates the key advantages of electric over air-driven, using straightforward language and relatable examples.

If you're still on the fence about making the switch to electric handpieces and want to learn more, we highly recommend enrolling in The Electric Advantage, a course presented by Dr. John Flucke—another accomplished clinician and educator. Through a series of concise videos, this course showcases how electric handpieces consistently outperform air-driven ones across all restorative procedures. As a bonus, the course also provides a comprehensive explanation of features you should consider when purchasing an electric system.

It's Not Really a Technique...

In the video below, Dr. John Flucke explains how the technique many identify as the “paint brush” technique, is really more of a limitation, based on the design of air-driven instruments.

Milling vs. Paint Brush VISUALIZED

In the gifs below, you’ll see how the paint brush technique (or limitation) compared to milling, is much different. There are many benefits to this, listed below.

OVERALL BENEFITS

More Efficient

As we saw in the previous lesson, you get significantly faster cut when you use electric (even with a dull bur).

Less Fatigue

Bien-Air instruments are balanced to relieve the strain while holding a handpiece reducing fatigue.

Better Results

The ability to control your speed ultimately allows you more control for every procedure which leads to better outcomes.

This is the power of

We’ve slowed down the video above to showcase the power of milling. As you notice the bur keeps spinning and everything in it’s way literally disappears.
