Montreal, October 17, 2006 – ProDrive Systems Inc. announced today the North American launch of its patented Upgrade Turbine & Bur system for improving the performance and durability of leading brand handpieces. The system directly addresses the acknowledged and chronic industry problem of poor handpiece durability and quick degradation of performance. With its 100% Torque Transfer feature, the drive system ensures that all the cutting power of the handpiece is transferred to the bur. Meanwhile, the patented Bur Lengthening feature improves the productivity of the dentist by allowing him to quickly and safely gain more access with greater precision during procedures. “Several leading industry opinion leaders and all the major dental publications have detailed the dental industry’s frustration with under-powered and unreliable handpieces,” says Derek M.J. Turner, ProDrive’s founder and Chairman. “After four years of product development and fourteen patents, we have developed the next generation of handpiece technology that will change dentistry forever. The ProDrive System provides better-than-new performance for the handpiece the dentist already owns; in fact, our early tests demonstrate that dentists feel the difference within seconds of using our product. Having completed the regulatory process for FDA certification and engaged the services of High Speed Service, with its over 100 dealers in North America, we are ready to launch at the American Dental Association’s annual session in Las Vegas.” The ProDrive System is comprised of the ProDrive Upgrade Turbine and the ProDrive Bur. Traditional friction grip handpieces often suffer torque loss when cutting hard materials. Such torque loss reduces cutting power and causes unwanted friction. The innovative 100% Torque Transfer feature of the ProDrive System ensures the bur always turns in sync with the turbine, thereby improving the cutting power as well as the durability and reliability of dental handpieces. In addition, the ProDrive Upgrade Turbine is designed with superior quality components and comes with a one-year performance warranty to ensure constant and reliable handpiece performance.
ProDrive Systems Inc. designs and develops products with patented innovation that revolutionize the conventional standards of performance and durability of modern dental instruments. ProDrive Systems' innovative drive-lock design is the world's first turbine/bur system to improve the performance and safety of dental handpieces.
