Abstract
A dental handgrip for delivering filling compound into a tooth cavity is described, the handgrip being provided with a connection device to which a container for the filling compound can be connected. In some embodiments, the handgrip includes a light emission device via which radiation having a wavelength and radiant power for hardening of filling material can be provided. The dental handgrip can include a safety device to prevent a premature or inadvertent light emission onto the filling compound. In some embodiments, the handgrip includes a fluid-operated feeding device for feeding the filling compound from the filling compound container. A vibration generator operable to cause vibrations in the filling compound and to assist in feeding of the compound can also be provided.
