Biberach/Riss, IDS 2011.

The new KaVo QUATTROcare CLEAN cleaning and care device for handpieces and turbines will soon offer users maximum support for hygiene and high efficiency. Validated, cost-efficient and sustainable - the QUATTROcare CLEAN will soon ensure perfect internal cleaning of handpieces and value-conserving care.

Perfect cleaning and care - low costs

The new QUATTROcare CLEAN - which will be presented as a Future Concept at the IDS 2011 - will soon offer to the practice team, an efficient and practical solution, for RKI-compliant, internal cleaning and care of handpieces. Consistent use of QUATTROcare CLEAN, eliminates contaminated debris during disinfection, maintains performance of turbines, straight and contra angles and correspondingly contributes to longevity and conservation of handpiece value.

Thanks to the low acquisition and consumables costs, QUATTROcare CLEAN represents a very economical solution for validated, RKI-compliant, internal cleaning (semi-critical B and critical B) and care of handpieces. The innovative and environmentally-friendly operating principle, which only needs small amounts of cleaning additives, achieves RKI-compliant and validated internal cleaning effects, thanks to the reliable removal of proteins. Thanks to the low consumption of chemical additives and cleaning agents, QUATTROcare CLEAN also reduces the current costs to the dental practice. The device also represents a cost-efficient investment, as it focuses on validated, internal cleaning and care of handpieces and can be perfectly integrated into existing practice regimes. Example: manual external cleaning – validated internal cleaning and care in the QUATTROcare CLEAN – sterilisation in autoclave (semi-critical B: unpacked / critical B: packed ).

Optimum workflow, easy operation

Handling of the QUATTROcare CLEAN, cleaning and care device, is very easy: open front panel, insert handpieces, close front panel, start by pressing one button. The automated programme sequence, offers a maximum of speed and user-friendliness. Thus the device can be efficiently integrated, into daily practice routine. Internal cleaning and care of up to 4 handpieces is performed easily, fully automatically and in compliance with RKI recommendations and only requires 12 minutes. The whole reprocessing procedure - manual external cleaning, internal cleaning and care with QUATTROcare CLEAN, sterilisation (KaVo STERIclave B - fast cycle) - only requires approx. 33 minutes. Handpieces will experience reliable cleaning and optimum care and will be rapidly available again for clinical use on patients.

Using corresponding adapters, cleaning and care of existing turbines, straight and contra angles from other manufacturers, can also be performed.

KaVo QUATTROcare CLEAN meets RKI recommendations of practice hygiene, for automatic, internal cleaning of all handpieces. Reliable cleaning. KaVo means cost-efficiency. Instruments are maintained.
