Are you protecting your implant motor lead correctly?
During implant surgery, the surgical motor lead and handpiece are exposed to blood, aerosols and contamination. They must therefore be cleaned, packaged and sterilised correctly in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions for use.
Before the surgical motor lead is packaged and placed into the steriliser, the correct sterilisation protector must be fitted to the connection point.
This small protector helps prevent steam and moisture from entering and damaging the delicate internal components and connections within the lead.
One size does not fit all.
