Abstract
Surgical drill (A) with a hollow ring (B) allowing the passage of irrigation or cooling fluid, delivered by a contra-angle handpiece, which drives and guides it along the flutes (C) during drill rotation. The shapes of the tool and the turbo ring allow the cooling fluid to be drawn in and flowed along the drill to the tip.
