33. Hygiene - external hygiene • The rounded form of the glass bowl makes it easy to clean it. It can also be removed for a cleaning in a washing machine. The glass as a material remains intact after use of many years • The suction holder covers are smooth and have no dirt traps. The suction activation is by auto-adaptive inductive sensors, which eliminate the need for difficult-to-clean micro switches • The suction tubings are easily removed from the cuspidor and the HVE as well as the saliva nozzle can be disassembled for cleaning and autoclaving

34. Hygiene - external hygiene • Needle bearing and spring balanced OP-ARM -> Competitors use bellows or other difficult to clean parts for the articulations • Instrument console is covered with an autoclavable hygiene membrane (silicon) which is easily removed and put back to its place. The membrane also protects the console against hits of the instruments, silences the noise caused by the instruments and prevents the instruments gliding while not in use

35. Hygiene - external hygiene • The console cover is an integral moulded plastic piece which means that there is no possibility that any cleaning agents sprayed on sit can enter the instrument console and cause damage • The floor is easy to keep clean thanks to the integrated design of the unit and absence of traditional junction boxes and umbilicals

36. Hygiene - internal hygiene • The target of the internal hygiene is to guarantee that the water that gets into the patient’s mouth during treatment is clean • As a general rule the unit must not decrease the quality of the water available from the inlet

37. Hygiene - internal hygiene Waterline flushing programs between the patients (a) and in the beginning of each clinic day (b) • Short waterline flushing • Intensive waterline flushing

38. Hygiene - internal hygiene Short waterline flushing(30 s / selected hose): It is recommendable to flush the instruments every time by water before sterilizing them. The standard non-return valves and Contamination Prevention Valve for turbine prevent impurities from getting into the instrument hose, but flushing helps additionally to avoid the hardening of impurities into the narrow lines of the handpiece during autoclaving

39. Hygiene - internal hygiene Intensive waterline flushing (total 120 s + glass filler operation) should be done in the beginning of each clinic day in order to replace the stagnant water that has been standing overnight in the waterlines with fresh water. This reduces any overnight or weekend microbial accumulation into the waterlines

40. Hygiene - internal hygiene Anti-contamination barrier for turbine Planmeca Compact has a patented anti-contamination system, which prevents any back-suction to occur. The newest turbine models have also an in-built protection against the back-suction phenomenon. The anti-contamination system for turbine causes that it takes 2-3 seconds for the turbine to stop after the foot control has been returned to its rest position. The anti-contamination system functions automatically for all turbine tubings attached to the instrument console.

41. Hygiene - internal hygiene Planmeca Waterline Cleaning • Optional system to assure high level of internal hygiene • Assures removal of microbial biofilm • Periodical treatment with Planmeca PlanosilTM cleaning liquid • The cleaning procedure is highly automated. • Unlike systems that utilize a continuous disinfectant supply system, the Planmeca solution leaves the treatment water free of chemical residues

42. Hygiene - internal hygiene Contents of PlanosilTM • Hydrogen peroxide: ~ 2.5%, Silver: ~ 0.012% Advantages • A long-term effect • Inhibits recontamination • Odourless • Neither carcinogenic nor mutagenic • No foaming • No gaps in effectiveness • Environmentally friendly • Biodegradable • Does not enter into chemical combination with any other chemical element • A long storage life

43. Hygiene - internal hygiene Cleans the unit’s internal waterlines completely, including: • Main water valve • Water filters • Pressure regulator • Cup filler line • Instrument waterlines nurse syringe (optional)

44. Hygiene - internal hygiene Clean Water System Utilizes a container as a source of water to the instruments.
