5.3
Information for the dentist
The titanium bases TiBases are delivered in non-sterile condition.
Observe the implant manufacturer's operating instructions.
5.3.1 Sterilization
The individual abutments and abutment screws must be cleaned and
sterilized prior to insertion. Furthermore, the locally applicable legal
regulations and the hygiene standards applicable for a dental practice
must be observed.
Use only the validated sterilization procedures specified below to sterilize
individual abutments. Observe the sterilization parameters.
Use a steam sterilizer to sterilize the unwrapped individual abutment and
screw with a pre-vacuum cycle (135°C / 275° F for 3 minutes).
The responsibility for the sterility of the individual abutment lies with the
user. It must be ensured that only suitable devices, materials and
product-specifically validated methods are used to perform sterilization. It
must be ensured that the methods used have been validated. The
equipment and devices must be properly maintained and serviced at
regular intervals.
The fabricator (dental technician) of the TiBase and the mesostructure
must inform the dentist of the need to sterilize the abutment before
inserting it in the patient's mouth!
5.3.2 Application in the mouth
WARNING
Risk of aspiring small parts
➢ Position the patient in such a way that the risk of aspiring small parts
is kept to a minimum.
➢ Secure all intraorally used components against aspiration and being
swallowed.
WARNING
Use the unused Abutment Screw and the tools provided by the implant
manufacturer to screw the TiBase onto the implant, observing the
tightening torques specified in table 1 (see “Product description [ → 4]“).
