Abstract
A dental instrument having an active tool for treating a hard dental substance includes an arrangement for spraying water to cool the preparation location with the water either forming an envelope surrounding the tool or being a finely atomized stream of a solid angle directed onto the preparation location. The volume proportion of cooling air relative to the volume of the water in both versions is not greater than the volume of the water so that the envelope or spray are substantially free of air.
