A root canal length measuring device includes a display for displaying a control mode figure indicating an execution control mode executed among a plurality of control modes and a control unit for controlling the display to display the figure. A plurality of elements for displaying the control mode figure include a shaft portion extending in an arc shape or a fan shape and a clockwise head portion and a counterclockwise head portion indicating a first direction and a second direction as rotation directions of a cutting tool, respectively. The control unit controls the display according to the execution control mode in a root canal treatment device so that, among the plurality of elements, an entirety or a part of the shaft portion and the clockwise head portion and/or the counterclockwise head portion are displayed on the display.

Display for cutting tool

In a medical system, a medical device includes a first display that displays a figure or a character corresponding to data relevant to medical treatment performed in the medical device, and a first controller that causes the first display to display the figure or the character corresponding to the data and that, when the data satisfies conditions for notification of a warning, causes the medical device to emit a first warning. A remote control device includes a second display that displays the figure or the character corresponding to the data, and a second controller that causes the second display to display the figure or the character corresponding to the data and that, when the data satisfies the conditions for notification of the warning, causes the remote control device to emit a second warning that is different than the first warning.

In a dental treatment apparatus, a control circuit controls a drive motor in accordance with a drive sequence. The drive sequence includes a plurality of drive patterns and at least one of the plurality of drive patterns is different from other drive pattern. The plurality of drive patterns include at least one drive pattern having such drive that a cutting tool is rotated in a cutting direction for cutting a treatment portion and drive for rotating the cutting tool in a non-cutting direction which is reverse to the cutting direction.

Dental treatment apparatus and method of driving the same

A dental treating apparatus according to the present invention includes: a hand piece; a head unit; a driving unit; a control unit; a load specifying unit; and a load comparing unit. The hand piece drivably holds a cutting tool on the head unit. The driving unit drives the cutting tool in a normal rotation direction or in a reverse rotation direction. The load comparing unit compares a load detected and a reference load. During a normal rotation period until driving for rotating the cutting tool in the normal rotation direction by the driving unit satisfies a predetermined first condition, the control unit maintains a rotation direction of the cutting tool in the normal rotation direction, and when a result of comparison by the load comparing unit attains a predetermined result during the normal rotation period, the control unit controls the rotation direction to the reverse rotation direction.

Dental treating apparatus and driving method for the same

A dental treating apparatus according to the present invention includes: a hand piece; a head unit; a driving unit; a resistor for load detection; a load comparing unit; and a control unit. The hand piece drivably holds a cutting tool on the head unit. The driving unit drives the cutting tool in a normal rotation direction or in a reverse rotation direction. The resistor for load detection detects a load applied to the cutting tool. The load comparing unit compares the detected load and a reference load each time driving for rotating the cutting tool in the reverse rotation direction by a predetermined rotation angle is performed. The control unit controls the driving unit based on a result of comparison by the load comparing unit.

Dental treating apparatus

The present invention is directed to a dental treating apparatus including: a hand piece; a power source (micro motor); a driving unit (motor driver); and a controller. The driving unit drives the cutting tool so as to be switchable between first driving in which the cutting tool is driven clockwise and second driving in which the cutting tool is driven counterclockwise. When a rotation direction in which the cutting tool cuts an object to be cut is defined as normal rotation and a rotation direction opposite to the normal rotation is defined as reverse rotation, the controller sets the first driving as driving for the normal rotation when a first cutting tool rotated clockwise is held on the head unit, and sets the second driving as the driving for the normal rotation when a second cutting tool rotated counterclockwise is held on the head unit.

The present invention is directed to a dental treating apparatus including: a hand piece; a power source (micro motor); a driving unit (motor driver); a driving state detecting unit (resistor for load detection, root canal length measuring circuit); and a controller. The hand piece drivably holds a cutting tool on a head unit. The power source drives the cutting tool. The driving unit drives the cutting tool with twist driving in which the normal rotation and the reverse rotation are repeated. The driving state detecting unit detects a driving state of the cutting tool. The controller changes at least one parameter of a rotation angle in the normal rotation, a rotation angle speed in the normal rotation, a rotation angle in the reverse rotation, and a rotation angle speed in the reverse rotation in accordance with the driving state of the cutting tool detected by the driving state detecting unit.

A dental treating apparatus has a head unit having a holder for drivably holding a cutting tool, a hand piece body connected to the head unit for transmitting power to drive the cutting tool, and a controller for controlling the driving of the cutting tool. The dental treating apparatus further has a conductive body disposed in an inside of the hand piece body for transmitting an electric signal, contact members electrically connecting the cutting tool or the holder with the conductive body, a connection failure detector for applying a predetermined input signal to the conductive body and detecting a connection failure of the contact members based on a response to the input signal obtained via the cutting tool, and a notifier for notifying a user based on the detection result of the connection failure detector.
