How To Measure - W&H Osstell Beacon User Manual

11) How to Measure

Prior to use on a patient, place a barrier sleeve over the Osstell Beacon.
The barrier sleeve helps prevent cross-contamination and helps keep
dental composite material from adhering to the surface of the
instrument tip and body, and discoloration and degradations from
cleaning solutions.
Note:
• Barrier sleeves are single patient use only.
• Discard used barrier sleeves in standard waste after each patient.
• Do not leave barrier sleeves on the instrument for extended periods.
• See below for recommended barrier sleeves.

• The Osstell Beacon instrument must be cleaned and sanitized with
appropriate cleaning and/or sanitizing agents after each patient.
See section 15) Cleaning and Maintenance for acceptable agents.
A first measurement should be taken at implant placement to get a
baseline for future measurements throughout the healing process.
Before the final restoration, another measurement is taken which makes
it possible to observe the stability development of the implant.
It is recommended to measure in both Buccal-Lingual and Mesial-
Distal direction to find the lowest stability. Therefore, the Osstell Beacon
prompts the user to measure in both these directions.
We recommend you studying the more detailed information (videos and
quick guides) available on osstell.com/get-started-beacon,
to utilize the full functionality of your Osstell Beacon.
1. A ctivate the Osstell Beacon by picking it up. The instrument will
start-up and after showing the battery status, the instrument will be
ready for measurement in the BL (Buccal – Lingual) direction, which is
prompted in the upper display as well as optimal angle of the instru-
ment tip towards the Smartpeg.
2. Place a barrier sleeve over the Osstell Beacon instrument. See fig 1.
3. Place the SmartPeg into the SmartPeg Mount. The SmartPeg is
magnetic, and the SmartPeg Mount will hold the SmartPeg. See fig
2. Attach the SmartPeg to the implant or abutment by screwing the
SmartPeg Mount using finger force of approximately 4-6 Ncm.
Do not over-tighten, to avoid damaging the SmartPeg threads.
4. Bring the instrument inside the mouth and hold the instrument tip
close (3-5mm) to the top of the SmartPeg without touching it.
Hold the tip at approx. 45º angle towards the SmartPeg top as indicated
in the upper display and shown in fig 3 and fig 8a. Do not measure in
the ways indicated in fig 8b or fig 8c.
An audible sound indicates when measurement has started, and
measured data will be shown in the upper display combined with
a colored light indication below the instrument tip. See fig 4. Bring
the instrument out of the mouth to clearly read the ISQ value and the
colored indication.
