Dentsply Sirona 4 Safety Operating Instructions CEREC Primemill 4.4 Wireless phone interference with equipment Background Integrated circuits (logical circuits and microprocessors) are used to implement a wide variety of functions in dental/X-ray/CAD/CAM systems. The circuits must be miniaturized to a very high degree in order to include as many functions as possible on these chips.
In extreme cases, it will be impossible to establish a wireless connection at all. Dentsply Sirona has selected the best possible configuration for data communication via the wireless interface (CEREC Radio Device) or WLAN, which generally ensures perfect functioning of this connection.
