It also specifies requirements for manufacturer's information, marking and packaging.

The standard classifies dental hand tools and motors according to their design, intended use and features. This classification helps standardize these tools and ensure that they meet certain performance criteria.

Ensuring the safety of dental instruments is a priority issue. The standard may specify safety requirements regarding electrical safety, protection against ingress of liquids and debris, and ergonomic design to prevent user fatigue and discomfort.

EN ISO 14457 may include requirements regarding the durability and reliability of dental hand tools and motors. This includes factors such as the lifespan of the device and its ability to withstand the rigors of dental procedures.
