Abstract: The invention is directed to an angle piece for dental purposes comprising a tool with cylindrical tool shaft (50), which tool is supported in the head part (1) transversely relative to the drive axis or axle and is securely connected with its drive gear wheel (5) and is interchangeable together with the latter and is characterized in that a head bearing (42) on the tool side, which head bearing (42) is insertable in the head part (1) in a form-locking manner, is rotatably and undetachably connected with the tool (4) and in that an outer screw sleeve (29), which is axially displaceable on the head shaft, partly overlaps the head bearing (42) in its inserted position. A construction of the invention provides that the opening of the screw sleeve (29) has a hollow cone (33) which is pressable against a corresponding outer cone face (49) of the head bearing (42).
