SEAL-TIGHT PROPHY ANGLE
The Seal-Tight prophy angle comes standard with every unit.
This prophy angle is a precision-engineered dental device. All of the gears and shaft assemblies are
made of high-grade stainless steel, which when kept clean and properly lubricated, will provide long,
trouble-free service.
General Cautions;
When operating the prophy head always consider the safety of the patient.
Should the prophy head function abnormally, cease operation immediately. See below for
maintenance instructions. If you need further assistance contact Engler Engineering Corporation for
instructions.
Before use, always confirm that the brush or rubber cup is correctly seated in place.
If end cap unscrews by itself during a procedure; Switch the direction of the motor
Check that head and end cap are screwed together firmly. A poor fit between the head and end cap
requires replacement of the entire prophy angle.
IMPORTANT:
The prophy angle is rated for no more 3,000 R.P.M. – High speeds will result in the
polished surface heating up, spattered polish, and shorter prophy angle life. Keep the unit set in the
prophy range whenever using the prophy angle.
Always start with a low speed and then adjust to
a higher speed as required.
PROPHY ANGLE INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Dampen rubber cup.
Dab a small amount of polishing paste onto the rubber cup.
Place the prophy angle into the patients’ mouth and lightly apply the rubber cup to the surface of the
tooth with a circular motion.
Always begin the procedure using the lowest possible RPM, increase speed as necessary.
Do not allow the rubber cup to remain stationary on one area for an extended period of time. Keep
the cup moving, so as to not overheat one area.
Add polish as needed. Move over all tooth surfaces and between teeth.
When finished, rinse the patient’s mouth thoroughly with plenty of water.
