ABSTRACT An ultrasonic endodontic dental handpiece has an elongated housing supporting a coil connected for establishing an alternating magnetic field, the housing having a cooling fluid inlet at one end and being open at the other for receiving and supporting a removable insert. The insert includes an elongated hollow body having one end adapted to be insertably mounted in the open end of the housing in fluid communication with the interior of the handpiece, and an elongated tool support assembly telescopingly received in the body. The tool support assembly includes an elongated shaft member having a vibrator rigidly mounted on one end in position to be vibrated by the electromagnetic field and a seal located between the body and shank outboard of the housing to prevent the flow of cooling liquid through the body past the seal. A cooling fluid outlet is provided in the body between the housing in the seal to permit cooling fluid to flow through the handpiece, and an irrigation fluid passage is provided in the shaft outboard of the housing to permit the flow of irrigation fluid along the shaft to the terminal end of the insert assembly. A mounting head on the end of the shaft supports an endodontic instrument to be vibrated by the vibrator, with the head including a fluid flow passage for discharging irrigation fluid longitudinally of the endodontic instrument. An improved irrigation fluid dispenser is connected to the apparatus for selectively delivering irrigation fluid under pressure to the mounting head.
