A medical handpiece having an elongate grip part, in the forward end region of which a clamping sleeve is rotatably mounted, in which sleeve a shaft of a tool can be inserted and clamped, wherein the clamping sleeve has at least one axial clamping slot and in its longitudinal region a constriction section with a reduced inner cross-section and in the longitudinal region is surrounded by a sleeve receiving space. In order to improve the tool clamping the outer form of the clamping sleeve is, in the region of the constriction section, so configured that through the insertion of the shaft it forms a barrel-like outward bulge and in that the sleeve receiving space is in cross-section the same size or larger than the barrel-like output bulge.
