  • Page 22: Using Your Sensor

    4.2 Using Your Sensor 4.2.1 Sensor Sheaths Hygienic protective sleeves are required for Sensors. New sleeves are required for each new patient and must be disposed of properly after patient use. Sensor holders (if they are the disposable type) should follow the same procedure. Before using a new sleeve, select one that is appropriate for the size of the Sensor.
  • Page 23 4.2.2 Sensor Positioning To achieve stable Sensor positioning during X-ray exams, use the appropriate tabs and holders available with the Schick Sensors. Using an appropriate Sensor positioning system, adjusting the X-ray setting depending on intraoral position, and placing the X-ray source as close as possible to the imaging area of the Sensor: all of these contribute towards obtaining quality digital X-ray images.

  • Page 42 7.1.3 Processing of the X-ray sensor Patients, users and third parties come into contact with the X-ray sensor. Contaminated surfaces are potential transmission paths here. The risk of cross- contamination of patients, users or third parties is reduced by reprocessing combined with using protective sleeves (see chapter Sensor Sheaths [→22]).
  • Page 43 Instructions for reprocessing Initial treatment of the listed parts Remove the hygienic protective sleeve, see „Sensor Sheaths  at the location of use [→22]“. Make sure that the sensor is not additionally contaminated when removing the hygienic protective sleeve. Directly after use, remove gross contamination with a disposable cloth or paper towel (if necessary).

  • Page 46 The plastic parts of the sensor holder systems in particular have a limited service life. This is reduced with each reprocessing cycle. Dentsply Sirona does not define a maximum number of uses based on many years of experience with these reprocessable parts. Nevertheless, the basic principle applies that, when in doubt, the components should be replaced prematurely (see also information on maintenance, inspection and testing).
  • Page 47 7.1.5 Disposal of single-use items For improved hygiene, disposable parts such as hygienic protective sleeves and disposable bite block parts are used. These parts are single use items and must be disposed of after use. No reprocessing is intended before or after use. WARNING The hygienic protective sleeves are single use devices.
