The D17-C is designed for slow rotary work in general dental surgery, such as finishing, polishing, and removing soft decay. The head sits at an angle to the body, so the working end reaches surfaces beyond the line of a straight piece, and the push-button chuck holds the bur in the head's square opening.
Restorative rooms and hospital clinics put low-speed handpieces to work across many short appointments in a day. Changing a bur means one press of the button, after which the next bur seats in the same opening. The bur size is given as 2.35 mm across, with a tolerance of minus 0.016 mm, so a team can match its burs to the chuck before the order goes in.
A speed ceiling of 40,000 rpm tells a team the upper limit for the range, and the spray type is inner channel. A practice that equips several rooms with this handpiece holds one code, one bur size and one speed figure for all of them. Trays are simple to lay out when every handpiece follows the same pattern, and a missing piece at the end of a session is easy to see.
Practice managers and dental assistants handle the order side of the work. A single code, D17-C, names the handpiece. This model's description omits air supply, noise level, and body length, and a team that needs any of them for site planning can request it through Medigear before ordering.
