A-dec Warm Air Tooth Dryer
Quick Start Guide
|
About the |
Your tooth dryer allows you to quickly prepare the tooth surface using warm, |
|
|||
|
Warm Air |
|
||||
|
nearly dry air. As the compressed air passes through the tube, it separates into |
|
||||
|
Tooth Dryer |
|
||||
|
two distinct swirling air streams – one warm, one cold. The warm air flows out |
|
||||
|
|
|
||||
|
|
gently from the tip orifice, while cold air is exhausted. |
|
|||
|
|
|
|
|||
|
Operating |
The tooth dryer air temperature will be affected by changes in air pressure: an |
|
|||
|
Temperature |
increase in air pressure will cause an increase in temperature; likewise, a decrease |
|
|||
|
|
in air pressure will cause a decrease in temperature. Be aware that the handpiece |
|
|||
|
|
pressure gauge on the control system indicates tooth dryer air pressure. |
|
|||
|
|
|
|
|||
|
Tubing |
Never connect the dryer to tubing previously used with a dental handpiece. Oil |
|
|||
|
Considerations |
residues in the handpiece tubing will contaminate the dryer internally which may |
|
|||
|
|
reduce or block air flow. In addition, oil residues blowing out of the dryer may |
|
|||
|
|
seriously contaminate the work surface. If you suspect that the tooth dryer has |
|
|||
|
|
been contaminated internally with oil residue, follow the steps in the table. |

|
|
|
1 |
Remove the dryer from the handpiece tubing. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2 |
While holding the dryer over a sink, pan, or towel, use an electronics |
|
|
|
|
|
degreaser to flush it out. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3 |
Spray the cleaner into the exhaust air port for 5 to 10 seconds, then |
|
|
|
|
|
shake the instrument to force out any remaining degreaser. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The instrument will air dry within several minutes. If it is necessary to use the |
|
|||
|
|
instrument immediately after cleaning, dry it out on its own dedicated handpiece |
|
|||
|
|
tubing by operating for 10 to 15 seconds before using. |
