Buffalo Dental Manufacturing has announced the release of the V35E, an enclosed micromotor handpiece developed for finishing 3D-printed dental prosthetics and models. According to the company, the product is designed to improve safety and workflow efficiency in dental laboratories and clinical settings where 3D printing is increasingly used.
The company stated that the V35E was developed in response to concerns about exposure to particles, volatile compounds, and residual materials released during grinding, trimming, and adjustment of 3D-printed oral appliances. According to Buffalo Dental Manufacturing, these byproducts can pose challenges for dental technicians and clinicians during routine finishing procedures.
The V35E uses a fully enclosed system that captures debris and circulates it through an integrated filtration mechanism. According to the company, this approach is intended to reduce airborne contaminants while supporting a cleaner work environment during finishing procedures.
Buffalo Dental Manufacturing indicated that the handpiece is designed for use in both dental laboratories and dental offices where speed, precision, and safety are required. The company stated that the unit combines high-torque performance with adjustable speed control to support efficient workflows, along with a compact design intended to reduce operator fatigue during extended use. According to the company, the handpiece is also built to withstand routine use in busy lab environments.
Buffalo Dental Manufacturing is headquartered in Syosset, New York, and supplies handpieces, laboratory products, equipment, and accessories to the dental profession worldwide. According to the company, much of its product line is manufactured in the United States with an emphasis on quality, safety, and value. Buffalo Dental Manufacturing products are available exclusively through authorized dealers and distribution partners. More information is available at www.buffalodental.com.
