CEREC Omnicam
CAUTION
If the CEREC Omnicam accidentally falls down, check to make sure
that the camera windows and coated sapphire glass are not
damaged. If the CEREC Omnicam has been damaged, it must no
longer be used on patients.
The CEREC Omnicam must be recalibrated.
NOTE
Do not sterilize the CEREC Omnicam or the camera cable!
NOTE
The mirror sleeves are not autoclave sterilizable!
8.1.2.1
General information
The CEREC Omnicam is a very sensitive optical device and must
therefore be handled with the utmost care. Protect the coated sapphire
glass and the camera windows against scratches and clean them with a
clean lint-free cloth and ethanol (commercially available cleaning
alcohol) whenever a film is noticed during imaging.
Dental health care providers are advised to select the reprocessing
method that aligns with their infection control process. An effective
infection control program is practical, reasonable, and reproducible.
3 methods have been validated to reprocess the CEREC Omnicam
between patient care:
● High-level disinfection of the mirror sleeve (with HLD Set) [→ 60]
● High-level disinfection of the mirror sleeve (without HLD Set) [→ 65]
● Dry heat sterilization of the mirror sleeve [→ 67]
One of these methods is strongly recommended to be used for the
reprocessing of the mirror sleeve.
