Abstract

The instrument has a horn (17) of specific dimensions which ensure an appreciably better utilization of the converter energy and a service life which is appreciably longer than the service life of known instruments of other dimensions. A suction line (18) and a line (12) for a rinsing liquid pass coaxially through the entire instrument in such a manner that the two lines (18, 22) emerge through the housing cover (19) on the side opposite the tip of the horn, which makes the instrument considerably easier to manipulate. The risk of an electric, capacitative current passing to the patient is eliminated by the arrangement of an odd number of piezoceramic rings (1).
