Sterilization
32
Sterilisation
You only Have TWO options
1. Autoclave (yours or someone else's)
2. Clients buy their own drill bits.
This is the Only thing that will avoid cross infection
and keep YOU out of trouble
33
Autoclaving does not mean
Boiling water UV Cold sterilizing Wiping your instruments on your shirt
There's is no way around it !!
34
When your using a dust extraction nail drill
Either
1. Get your drills bits sterilized autoclave so you can reuse them or
2. Get your clients to pay for the drill bits $10-$12/ diamond drill bit from mymedicalsupplies.com.au normally $18-27 from other Medical suppliers
Do not try and cut corners you could be caught out! Back yarders annoy me the most, and its not fair!!!
35
Changing the Dust bag Read the instructions that were
issued with the drill FIRST. Disconnect the power cord from
the wall Disconnect the handpiece Pull out the dust bag Change with a new bag
36
Cleaning the Hand Piece Read the Instructions FIRST Turn off the power and remove
power cord from wall Take out the burr and
disassemble the handle case
by turning it. Clean each part with a dry
cloth Assembling is to be made in
the reverse order of disassembling
