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 scaler handpieces for up to 250
reconditioning cycles.
