What usually fails

KaVo units that sit in the rotation after they get noisy cost more to fix.

Turbine

Loss of power

Worn bearings and a tired cartridge are the usual KaVo high-speed story.

Chuck

Bur will not stay

Stop using it. A loose bur is a safety issue.

Electric

25LPA and EXPERTmatic

Parts run higher. You still get the number before work.

How to get a KaVo repaired

Sterilize it, pack it, and ask Amanda for a tracked label. Most repairs ship back within two business days of arrival.

  • OEM-spec parts

    KaVo turbines and overhauls use OEM-quality parts. The estimate lists what is actually being done.

  • 48-hour bench upon request

    Say so when you request the label if the room cannot wait.

Care notes

Keep the unit you already own. Mail it when oil is not enough.

  • MULTIflex spray

    Lubricate as KaVo specifies. Do not substitute Midwest or NSK oil.

  • Pull noise early

    A noisy MASTERtorque or EXPERTmatic is cheaper than a seized cartridge.

  • Bur out before autoclave

    A bur left in the chuck is not returned with the repair.

Warranty

Typical KaVo high-speed turbines carry a 1-year typical warranty (625C/CD is 6 months typical). Low-speed overhauls are typically 6 months. The estimate states the warranty for your repair.

No work starts without your approval. If a repair is not economical, you hear that first.

Questions offices ask

Do you repair KaVo handpieces?

Yes. High-speed, low-speed, INTRA motors, and KaVo electrics including 25LPA, 25LHA, 25LPR, EXPERTmatic, and Comfort drive.

How do I get my KaVo handpiece repaired?

Email, call, or text 1-718-236-4399 for a tracked label. Pack a sterilized unit with a note about the fault. You approve the estimate before work.

What is typical KaVo turbine repair cost?

Many KaVo high-speed turbines typically land around $245. 625C/CD is typically $175. The estimate is the number for your unit.

What about KaVo troubleshooting?

Noise, loss of power, and a bur that will not spin are the usual tells. Pull it from the rotation and send it in before the cartridge seizes.

KaVo vs NSK: which is better for general dentistry?

Arpino repairs both. Keep the brand already in the operatory. Shopping comparisons belong with your dealer, not this bench.

KaVo vs NSK handpiece?

We service KaVo and NSK on the same bench. Send the handpiece you already own.
