• It is the responsibility of the Dental Healthcare
Professional to determine the appropriate uses
of this product and to understand:
• the health of each patient,
• the dental procedures being undertaken,
• and applicable industry and governmental
agency recommendations for infection control
in dental healthcare settings,
• requirements, and regulations for safe
practice of dentistry; and
• these Directions for Use in their entirety,
including Section 4 Precautions, Section 5
Infection Control, and Section 10 System
Care.
• This product is designed to assist in eliminating
susceptibility to retraction of oral fluids. To ensure
adequate protection from cross-contamination
from other devices connected to the Dental Unit,
it is highly recommended that the Dental Unit be
installed with anti-retraction features. Additionally,
the Dental Unit, including the anti-retraction
features, must be properly maintained and
periodically tested. For more information, please
contact your Dental Unit manufacturer.
• Where asepsis is required or deemed
appropriate in the best professional judgment of
the Dental Healthcare Professional, this product
should not be used, unless used in combination
with a Sterile Lavage Kit, (P/N 81340).
• During boil-water advisories, this product should
not be operated as an open water system (e.g.
connected to a public water system). Dental
Healthcare Professionals should discontinue use
on patients and contact the local water authority
to determine when it is safe to continue use of
this product. When the advisory is cancelled, the
local water authority should provide guidance
for flushing of waterlines. All incoming waterlines
from the public water system inside the dental
office (e.g., faucets, waterlines, and dental
equipment) should be flushed in accordance with
manufacturer's instructions for a minimum of 5
minutes.
• Prior to beginning treatment, patients should
rinse with a known antimicrobial such as
Chlorhexidine Gluconate 0.12%. Rinsing with an
antimicrobial reduces the chance of infection and
reduces the number of microorganisms released
in the form of aerosols during treatment.
• The use of High Volume Saliva Evacuation to
reduce the quantity of aerosols released during
treatment is highly recommended.
• Failure to follow recommendations for
environmental operating conditions, including
input water temperature, could result in injury to
patients or users.
• Caution: To prevent electrical shock, do not
remove cover. No user serviceable parts inside.
Refer service to qualified service personnel.
Section : Precautions
.1 System Precautions
• Equipment flushing and dental water supply
system maintenance are strongly recommended.
See Section 10: System Care.
• Close manual shut-off valve on the dental office
water supply every night before leaving the
office.
• The use of an in-line water filter is
recommended.
• Never operate system without fluid flowing
through handpiece.
• Always ensure that the electrical connections
on the handpiece cable and the Steri-Mate
Handpiece are clean and dry before assembling
them for use.
.2 Procedural Precautions
• The Cavitron SPS Self Install Ultrasonic Scaler
works with Cavitron inserts as a system, and
was designed and tested to deliver maximum
performance for all currently available Cavitron
and Cavitron Bellissima
Companies that manufacture, repair or modify
inserts carry the sole responsibility for proving
the efficacy and performance of their products
when used as a part of this system. Users are
cautioned to understand the operating limits of
their inserts before using in a clinical setting.
• Like bristles of a toothbrush, ultrasonic insert
tips "wear" with use. Inserts with just 2 mm of
wear lose about 50% of their scaling efficiency.
In general, it is recommended that ultrasonic
inserts be discarded and replaced after one year
of use to maintain optimal efficiency and avoid
breakage. A DENTSPLY Professional Insert
Efficiency Indicator is enclosed for your use.
• If excessive wear is noted, or the insert has been
bent, reshaped or otherwise damaged, discard
the insert immediately.
• Ultrasonic insert tips that have been bent,
damaged, or reshaped are susceptible to in-use
breakage and should be discarded and replaced
immediately.
• Retract the lips, cheeks, and tongue to prevent
contact with the insert tip whenever it is placed in
the patient's mouth.
• Water should be used for all scaling procedures.
Water flow is adjustable from less than 10 to
greater than 60 ml per minute.
• Only adjust the system's power adjustments
knob with the insert outside the patients mouth.
