As with all disinfection processes, follow your office’s standard protocols regarding PPE and other
guidelines.
After cleaning and disinfection, inspect the parts and components. Any pieces that appear worn,
cracked, or damaged should no longer be used. Contact us for repairs or replacement parts.
CLEAN & DISINFECT THE SHIELD, MANIFOLD AND AIRFLOW PLATE AFTER USE
1. Use an alcohol wipe to clean any large particulate matter or spray off the Shield and Manifold. Let
air dry, approximately 1 minute.
2. Use an allowed disinfection solution and standard protocols to thoroughly disinfect both sides of
the Safe-T-Shield, both the exterior and interior of the Manifold, and the stainless steel Airflow
Plate. Follow the disinfection manufacturer’s instructions for appropriate application.
While a clean Shield is obviously important for visual acuity, it is worth mentioning that the Airflow
Plate is prominently in the patient’s view during treatment. To maintain a positive patient experience,
it is vital that this plate is not only thoroughly disinfected, but that it LOOKS as clean as possible, too.
An alcohol wipe is effective to remove any streaks or spotting from disinfection. Additionally, we offer
replacement Airflow Plates should standard wear and tear degrade the appearance.
CLEAN & DISINFECT THE SUCTION TUBE AND LOWER ELEMENTS AFTER USE
1. If necessary, use an alcohol wipe to clean any large particulate matter or spray off the Suction
Tube and lower elements of the Safe-T-Shield. Let air dry, approximately 1 minute.
2. Use an allowed disinfection solution/product and standard protocols to thoroughly disinfect the
Suction Tube, Handle and Riser Tube. Follow the disinfection manufacturer’s instructions for
appropriate application.
3. Follow applicable regulatory board protocols on cleaning & disinfection for equipment below the
chair level when addressing the Housing and Base. Again, use only allowable solutions/products
as listed.
