BioSonic® S1 Piezo Ultrasonic Scaler

CAUTION: Federal law restricts this device to sale by, or on the order of, a licensed healthcare practitioner.

An essential part of your periodontal and prophylaxis therapy, as well as, root canal treatment.

Congratulations on your purchase of a Coltène/Whaledent BioSonic® S1 Piezo Ultrasonic Scaler. Developed specifically for use by dental hygienists, dentists, periodontists, and endodontists, Coltène/Whaledent’s Biosonic® S1 Piezo Ultrasonic Scaler (here-in- after referred to in this manual as the “unit”) is uniquely designed to save time by being a multi-functional device for general scaling as well as perio and endo dental procedures.

What is scaling?

Scaling is the process by which calculus is removed from the tooth surface. This can be accomplished using either hand instruments (such as hand scalers or curettes) or ultrasonic scalers. When using ultrasonic scalers, high frequency waves generated within the ultrasonic handpiece cause the tip to vibrate at 28,000 cycles per second. This vibration removes calculus from tooth surfaces more rapidly and effectively than hand instruments, while also eliminating unhealthy biofilm.

Piezo Ultrasonic Applications

• Dental Calculus Elimination

1. Set Up

A. Water (H2O) Line Connection

• Incoming cold water supply line pressure to the unit must be a maximum of 50 PSI (0.01-0.50 MPa).
• The cold water line should be thoroughly flushed prior to connection of the unit 
• Turn the Water Control Knob to the maximum position at the back of the unit 
• Connect the cold water supply line to the back of the unit and tighten with the connector 
• Fasten the other end to the cold water supply line using the metal quick-connector.
• Inspect all connections to make certain there are no leaks.

B. Power Cord/Foot Switch

• Plug the proper end of the Power Cord into the Power Supply Socket located at the back of the unit
• Insert the grounded plug supplied with the unit into a properly grounded electric receptacle, preferably “Hospital Grade.”
• Insert the Foot Switch cable into its designated socket at the back of the unit 
• Place the Foot Switch in a convenient place on the floor.
• Turn on the unit using the ON/OFF Power Switch located at the back of the unit. The General indicator (G) and the number 5 power level will light up.

C. Handpiece Connection and Components

• Attach the Handpiece to the Connector Cable 
• Be sure to keep the Connector Cable and Handpiece interface dry when connecting.

Components:

Nipple: The Nipple can be removed by unscrewing it from the Handpiece. The shaft can be cleaned with isopropyl alcohol.

Handpiece: The Handpiece is the main component and can be autoclaved to 132°C.

Connector Cable: Connects the Handpiece to the water source

and power supply of the unit.

1. Operating Instructions

A. Patient preparation and positioning

• Have the patient perform an antimicrobial pre-procedural mouth-rinse for up to 60 seconds to reduce bacterial contamination of the aerosol.
• Place the dental chair in a supine position for optimal access to both the maxillary and mandibular arches. This improves patient comfort and increases clinician visibility.
• Position the patient’s head for optimum access to the quadrant and tooth surface being treated. Evacuate water and debris with a saliva ejector or high volume evacuator.
