Intra Oral Tip And Light Shield Sterilization - Acteon SOPRO SOPROLIFE User Manual

INTRA ORAL TIP AND LIGHT SHIELD STERILIZATION

Intra oral tip and light shield must be clean before sterilization.
Intra oral tip and light shield can be immersed in a disinfection bath and be subjected to a manual or automatic
cleaning device (ultrasonic cleaner).
It must then be rinsed, dried and packaged before sterilization in an autoclave.
It can be sterilized at 134°C and two bars (200 KPa) in an autoclave for 18 minutes.
Nevertheless, it is important to note that sterilization of intra oral tips and light shields in an autoclave will
cause wear on these accessories . Therefore it is recommended to replace the intra oral tip and light shield on
average, every fifteen sterilization cycles (to avoid distorted diagnosis).
NOTE:
The tip and light shield can be cleaned with a disinfecting wipe e.g. Septol Wipes from Pierre Rolland.
WARNING :
Infection control procedures must be observed when using accessories such as intra oral tip, light shield and
dental barriers in order to prevent cross contamination risk from one patient to another.
