NSK Perio-Mate Manual Del Usuario página 4

Use Perio Mate Powder as cleaning powder. If other powder is used, the Perio Mate Nozzle Tip will
be damaged and it will increase the risk of damaging substantia ossea and dentine or causing
emphysema. We shall assume no liability for any failures caused by the use of other powder.
During use, both the operator and the assistant should always wear protective glasses and protective
face masks. Also, continuously vacuum and collect ejected powder during use. In case any powder
gets in the eyes wash out immediately with copious amount of water and consult an ophthalmologist.

Set supply air pressure at hand to 0.3 - 0.4 MPa (3.0 - 4.0 kgf/cm ). If this product is used with
incorrect pressure, the operator, assistant or patient may be injured due to a damaged Powder Case
Cover.
The Nozzle Tip is a single use product. Do not reuse or re-sterilize it since it may be damaged or
contaminated.
Make sure that the Nozzle Tip package is not open or damaged before use. If the package is open or
damaged, do not use that Nozzle Tip as it may be damaged or contaminated.
Follow the use-by date on the Nozzle Tip package. If the use-by date has lapsed, do not use that
Nozzle Tip as it may be damaged or contaminated.

This product is a precision instrument. Do not allow any impact on to the product. Do not drop the
product. Even the slightest impact may damage and deform the product.

Be very careful to avoid cleaning powder entering a patient's mucosal areas (eyes, nose etc) other
than the oral cavity. Also, protect the face with a towel, etc., or protective glasses, etc., to prevent entry
of cleaning powder into eyes.
*If the patient wears contact lenses, have the patient wear safety glasses or remove his/her contact
lenses before treatment.
Make sure the compressed air supply is dry and clean. Water or oil content mixed in the air may cause
internal solidification of the cleaning powder.
Securely attach the Powder Case Cap. Do not open the Powder Case Cap during use. The Powder Cap
and internal powder may be ejected since pressure is high in the Powder Case.
Before connecting the Powder Case to the Handpiece Hose, be sure to blow off water remaining
on the Hose connection with dry air. Residual moisture may enter the supply air, leading to internal
solidification of the cleaning powder.
If too much cleaning powder is put into the Powder Case, the proper amount of powder may not be
sprayed immediately after the start of use.
The Perio Mate Powder has the property of easily scattering because of its fine particles. Fill the
chamber slowly and be careful to prevent the powder from scattering.
Powder stored for a long while in opened packages can attract moisture and the powder may clog in
the Nozzle, etc. Make sure to use new dry powder. Securely close the lid of the Perio Mate Powder
container after filling the powder.
Apply Vaseline, etc., to the patient's lips to prevent drying or chapping at the corners of the mouth.
Do not use high acid water or sterilizing solutions to wipe, immerse or clean the product.
