XO FLEX – Instructions for use Operation
29
• The rotational motion brushes rather than “hammers” the tooth. This has a gentle polishing
effect on the tooth. It is generally much less painful for the patient and less tiring for the
operator.
Only use XO ODONTOSON 360 on teeth and root surfaces.
Use the mirror to hold lips and tongue away from the instrument tip.
Avoid touching patient lips, tongue or other soft tissue with the non-cooled part of
the instrument tip!
Handle the instruments carefully as the attached ferrite rod is fragile!
Always use as much irrigation water as practically possible to avoid unnecessary
wear of the instrument.
CHANGING THE INSTRUMENT
Detach the instrument from the hand-piece just by pulling it out.
Figure 26 – Changing instrument
Always empty the hand-piece of any water before applying a new instrument.
Wipe off any drops of water before applying an instrument.
It is important that the instrument is always firmly seated in the hand-piece!
