NOTE: Repeated reconditioning has a
minimal effect on the devices and their
accessories. The end of the service life of
the accessories is generally determined by
wear or damage resulting from use. Mectron
guarantees the integrity of its sterilisable air-
polishing nozzles and scaler handpieces for
up to 250 reconditioning cycles.
