Personal and patient protection
•
Only use high-quality rotating instruments with standardised shaft (diameter 2.35

When using rotating instruments please observe the operating instructions. Above
all, observe the manufacturer's information on maximum speeds, cleaning,
disinfection and sterilisation.
•
Disinfect, clean and sterilise the instruments after every use.
•
For every change of patients, only use cleaned, disinfected and sterilised
instruments in order to avoid potential transmission of illnesses to subsequent

•
Perform a surface disinfection on the handpiece after every use and before every

•
The operating personnel must remember that in working with the rotating instruments,
particles may be removed which could potentially splinter. Open and untreated
wounds on the patient which are in the direct vicinity of the working area should

particles.
