CAUTION

• If excess cleaning powder is put into the Powder Chamber, the correct amount of powder may not be sprayed immediately after the start of use. • The Perio Mate Powder has the property of easily scattering because of its fine particles. Perform filling slowly and be careful to prevent the powder from scattering. • Do not use any powder stored for a long while in opened packages. Do not use leftover powder. Using such powder may cause clogging of the nozzle. • Use only Perio Mate Powder. Other powders have different particle sizes and will clog and not perform as expected. Using other powders may also cause significant damage to the Nozzle Tip. • Always securely close the container lid of the Perio Mate Powder. Failure to do so will attract moisture which may cause clogging. • Use Perio Mate Powder as cleaning powder. If other powder is used, the Perio Mate Nozzle Tip will be damaged and it will increase the risk of damaging substantia ossea and dentine or causing emphysema. NSK shall assume no liability for any failures caused by the use of other powders. • If powder adheres to the Powder Case and/or the threaded portion of Powder Case Cap, clean it immediately or it will become difficult to close the Cap.

6-6 Operation

1) Attach the Nozzle Tip to the Nozzle of the Perio Mate Handpiece. 2) After filling the powder, spray it into a spittoon, etc., for one second and confirm that powder is mixed with water and air, and spraying is appropriately performed.

Nozzle Tip

3) Insert the Nozzle Tip into a periodontal pocket by 3 mm or more. (Fig. 6) If the Nozzle Tip is inserted less than 3 mm, powder may not be sprayed into the periodontal pocket efficiently.

Fig. 5

4) Start operation. Spray powder in the same periodontal pocket for up to 5 seconds or on the same tooth for up to 20 seconds. Do not spray longer than this specified time. 5) After treatment, remove the Nozzle Tip from the Perio Mate Handpiece using the Nozzle Tip Remover and dispose of it. (Fig. 7)

• The Nozzle Tip is a single use product. Do not reuse or re-sterilize the tip since it may be damaged or contaminated. If the Nozzle Tip is reused, sufficient performance may not WARNING be exerted due to nozzle deformation during removal, or accidental ingestion may result due to detachment of the Nozzle Tip during use. • Do not use this product in the same area immediately after scaling treatment of a tooth surface in a periodontal pocket. • Do not insert the Nozzle Tip into the same periodontal pocket during the same treatment more than once. • Powder should be sprayed for 5 seconds at maximum in the same periodontal pocket (20 seconds at maximum for one tooth). Never spray powder longer than this specified time. • Do not strongly force the Nozzle Tip into a periodontal pocket. • Make sure to use Perio Mate Powder. • Do not spray powder while the Nozzle Tip end is located at the bottom of a periodontal pocket. Emphysema may be caused. • Never spray powder toward a human body. Spray only toward a tooth surface. • Do not use the Nozzle Tip in any places other than periodontal pockets. • If the hose swells or air or powder leaks from connections between the Powder Case and Handpiece, during use, immediately stop use. • Do not use a deformed or damaged Nozzle Tip. It may detach during use. • Excessive air pressure supply may cause emphysema. Make sure the air pressure is correctly set, as specified. Set the spray air pressure to the extent that the spray slightly flows out from the periodontal pocket, even at maximum. Adjust the spray air pressure within an adequate supply air pressure while checking the patient’s condition. • Use the product while spraying water. • Make sure to use sufficient evacuation vacuum to prevent a patient from ingesting a large amount of powder. Avoid continuous use for a long period of time and allow the patient to rinse out the mouth as necessary.
