Abstract
The cutting shank of an instrument to be received in the head of a contra-angle of a dentistry handpiece is clamped in position with a pushed-button control device which is displacable counter to a tensioning spring. The control device generally takes the form of at least one reversal element for receiving pressures responsive to movements of the push-button and for converting such movements into a traction movement exerted by the reversal element on the pusher which is used to control the collet chuck which receives the shank of the instrument.
