Medicaments
The following medicaments are compatible with the Cavitron

• Cetylpyridinium Chloride (Cepacol®)
• Essential Oils (Listerine)
• Hydrogen Peroxide, 3% USP
• Povidone Iodine, 10% Solution
• Saline Solution
• Sanguinaria Extract (Viadent®)
• Sterile Water, USP
(For irrigating and System maintenance purposes).
10. System Setup, Operation and Techniques
for Use
10.1 Handpiece Setup
• This handpiece is sterilizable. Refer to Cavitron Systems
Infection Control Procedure Booklet for sterilization instructions
prior to using handpiece.
• Connect the Handpiece to the Cable Assembly by aligning the
electrical connections. If Cable Assembly does not seat into
the handpiece, gently rotate the handpiece until contacts align,
then fully insert handpiece.
• Hold empty handpiece in a semi-upright position over a sink
or drain. Press Foot Pedal until water exits to release any air
bubbles that might be trapped inside the handpiece.
• Lubricate the O-ring on the insert with water before placing it
into the handpiece. Fully seat insert with a gentle push-twist
motion. DO NOT FORCE.
• Turn the Lavage Control to select water flow rate during
system operation. Water flow rate is placed on a scale from 1 to
6 in older handpiece cable assemblies and small to large water
droplets in newer handpiece cable assemblies. Turn control
clockwise toward 6 or largest water droplet to increase water
flow at insert tip. Turn control counter-clockwise toward 1 or
smallest water droplet to decrease water flow. The water flow
rate through the handpiece also determines the temperature
of the lavage. Lower water flow rates produce warmer lavage.
Higher water flow rates produce cooler lavage. If the handpiece
becomes warm, increase the water flow rate. With experience
the Dental Healthcare Professional will be able to determine the
best water flow rate setting for optimum operating efficiency
and patient comfort.
10.2 Patient Positioning
For optimal access to both the upper and lower arches, the
backrest of the chair should be adjusted as for other dental
procedures. This assures patient comfort and clinician visibility.
Have the patient turn his/her head to the right or left. Also
position chin up or down depending upon the quadrant and
surface being treated. Evacuate irrigant using either a saliva
ejector or High Volume Evacuator (HVE).
10.3 Performing Ultrasonic Scaling Procedures
Note: Refer to Section 11 of this manual for general
procedures to be followed at the beginning of each day and
between patients.
• Follow precautions listed in the General and Ultrasonic sections
of 5.2 Procedural Precautions.
• The edges of Cavitron Ultrasonic Inserts are intentionally
rounded so there is minimal danger of tissue laceration with
proper ultrasonic scaling technique. Whenever the insert tip is
placed in the patient's mouth, the lips, cheek and tongue should
be retracted to prevent accidental (prolonged) contact with
the activated tip.
• Turn Power Level Control to select ultrasonic power level for
operation. Upward increases system power. Power level will
increase throughout the full range of the control. Hold the
handpiece over a sink or drain. Depress foot pedal to first
position to activate the system. Check water spray to verify
fluid is reaching the working end of the insert tip. Adjust the
water lavage control until the water (lavage) flows with a rapid
drip or small spray. Higher water flow settings provide cooler
irrigation.
• It may be necessary to adjust lavage with the system in "Boost"
mode (Foot Control fully depressed) so adequate fluid will be
available to cool tip to tooth interface.
• In general, it is suggested that a "feather-light-touch" be
used for ultrasonic scaling. The motion of the activated tip
and acoustic effects of the irrigating fluid, in most cases, are
adequate to remove even the most tenacious calculus.
• Periodically check the Cavitron Ultrasonic Insert for wear with
the Cavitron Insert Wear Indicator.
• The use of a saliva ejector or High Volume Evacuator (HVE) is
recommended during all procedures.
• Set the system's Power Level Control to the lowest efficient
power setting for the application and the selected insert.
10.4 Patient Comfort Considerations
Reasons for sensitivity
• Incorrect tip placement. The point should never be directed
toward tooth root surfaces.
• Not keeping tip in motion on tooth. Do not allow the insert to
remain in a static position on any one area of the tooth. Change
the insert's path of motion.
• Applying excessive pressure. Use a very light grasp and
pressure, with a soft tissue fulcrum whenever possible,
especially on exposed cementum.
If sensitivity persists, decrease power setting and/or move from
the sensitive tooth to another and then return.
11. System Care
It is recommended that you perform the following mainte-
nance procedures.
*NOTE: Refer to the Infection Control Procedure Booklet
supplied with your system for disinfectant products that
have been tested for compatibility
