SATELEC has always designed tips that respect the tooth's anatomy and vibrate in perfect harmony with the handpiece.
We don't deny that a brand X tip can be cheaper to buy than a genuine SATELEC tip but we would remind you that only genuine SATELEC tips have been designed specifically for use with our generators, and we strongly recommend them. Furthermore, brand X tips can be harder than tooth enamel, which could cause undesired wear, or even etching, of the tooth's surface. That's not all - you risk damaging the screw thread and electronics of your SATELEC handpiece. Last but certainly not least, even a slight physical or electronic incompatibility could cause a brand X tip to break ... with a risk of ingestion by the patient.
Understandably, SATELEC's liability - both legal and with regard to warranty of parts and accessories - cannot be engaged for damages that arise form the use of any other than genuine SATELEC accessories.
