solution consisting of an enzymatic cleaner, such as Terg-a-Zyme
and de-ionized water at approximately 20°C (68°F). Follow the
agent manufacturer's instructions.
Clean the post(s) by brushing away from the post while keeping
it immersed in an enzymatic cleaning/disinfecting agent validat-
ed for use on dental instruments. Special care should be taken
to clean crevices and other hard to reach areas. Thoroughly rinse
with tap water. Dry using a paper towel.
Additional cleaning can be performed in an ultrasonic cleaner
for 5 minutes. Remove and thoroughly rinse with tap water; dry
