7. HOW TO USE
7.1 Before use
C A U T I O N
Do not impact this product (dropping, for example). If the polisher gets an impact, stop using and ask your dealer for inspection
and repair of the main body and the powder cap together. If the main body and/or powder cap has got a crack (including a
small crack invisible to the naked eye) through an impact, the main body may break and cause accidents.
A T T E N T I O N

2) When using other products which are compatible (such as peripheral devices and instruments) to this product, observe
instructions for use of such devices or instruments.
1) Opening the package
2)
3)
Clean with alcohol and sterilize in an autoclave according to instructions in “9. CLEANING AND
STERILIZATION”.
A T T E N T I O N
1)
2) Do not lubricate this product. Lubricant will be mixed into the compressed air and cause powder clogging.
4) Checking your air compressor
containing moisture. For drainage and regular maintenance of your compressor, please refer to your air compressor’s instruction
7.2
1) Preparation of polisher
(a) If polisher is connected to a turbine hose, disconnect it from the turbine hose.
(b) Attach the head and powder cap to the chamber unit according to “7.3 Attaching head” and “7.4 Attaching powder cap”.
2) Connection (for BA720K/W/S/B/N)

(c)
3) Connection (for BA720M)
(a)
each connection. (If you don’t have a pressure gauge, consult with your dental dealer.)
4) Air pressure setting
(a) Turn off the water supply of your dental unit. Direct polisher
to your cuspidor and depress your foot control to activate the
dental unit.
(b) Adjust the air pressure of the unit until the gauge shows 0.25
to 0.4 MPa (about 2.5 to 4.1kgf/cm
2
).
(c) Detach the pressure gauge and polisher after pressure
adjustment.
C A U T I O N
1)
disconnected or powder being scattered.
2) Never pull the handpiece out of your coupling while polisher is in operation. This may cause injury due to disconnection of
the polisher (for ULTIMATE BA720K or BA720S).
3) Never release your coupling from the handpiece while polisher is in operation. This may cause injury due to disconnection
of the polisher (for ULTIMATE BA720W, BA720B or BA720N).
4) The head and powder cap must not be detached during operation. This may cause injuries due to instrument becoming
disconnected, or powder scattering.
5) The air pressure at the coupling must be set within 0.25 to 0.4 MPa (about 2.5 to 4.1kgf/cm
2
). Excess air pressure will
damage tooth surface and cause patient pain. It may also cause trouble during use such as injuries due to instrument damage,
or powder scattering.
7.3 Attaching head
1) Polisher must be disconnected from a turbine
hose of dental unit when attaching and
detaching the head. If it is connected,
2)

3) If water, oil, or powder adheres to head or
inside the chamber unit’s coupling, wipe off
with a cotton swab or dry cloth.
4) Align the head to the thread of the chamber
unit’s coupling, turn the head in the direction
of the arrow in the illustration until it stops.
7.4 Attaching powder cap
* Water due to sterilization must be expelled
powder yet.
1) The powder cap must be attached or detached when
polisher is not connected to a turbine hose. If
connected, detach from the turbine hose.
2) If water, oil, or powder adheres to inside chamber unit,
powder cap, or powder seal, wipe off with a dry cloth.
3)

In case the triangle symbol lies outside of the mounting
position mark, replace your powder seal with new one
according to “10.4 Replacement of powder seal”.

which may cause powder scattering.
4) Before each use, check if the screw threads of the main body and powder cap have any damage such as wear, crack,
deformation, etc. If the main body or powder cap has a damage, do not use and ask your dealer for repair together.
5) If the triangle symbol on the powder cap lies outside of the mounting position mark while the polisher is in use, this may
cause trouble like crack, damage or premature wear of the threads of the main body and powder cap.
A T T E N T I O N
Remove water, oil, or powder remaining in/on the head, coupling of chamber unit, powder chamber, and powder cap.
Otherwise, the powder will get damp and cause clogging.
7.5 Connecting to dental unit
1) Cleaning of coupling and turbine hose
(a)
BA720M). Remove with a dry cloth if remains.
* When a handpiece (air turbine, air scaler, etc.) is detached, water and oil remain at the joint.
Remove the water and oil without fail.
(b)
A T T E N T I O N
Remove water or oil remaining inside of your coupling (for BA720K/W/S/B/N) or on your Midwest 4-hole turbine hose (for
BA720M) and those on the joint of the chamber unit. Otherwise, the powder will become damp and cause clogging.
2) Connection (for BA720K/W/S/B/N)
(a) Connect a coupling (separately sold)
compatible with your polisher to your turbine
hose.
(b) Insert your coupling on your turbine hose into
the joint of polisher until you hear a locking
turbine hose has no slack.
(c) If your coupling has a light source, turn off
the illumination switch of your dental unit.
3) Connection (for BA720M)
(a) Align the backend of the handpiece and
connector holes of your Midwest 4-hole
turbine hose.
(b) Hold the polisher at the joint. Rotate the ring
slack.

body and such parts, or powder scattering.
A T T E N T I O N
To avoid shortening the life of the light source (light bulb) of your coupling, turn off the illumination of your dental unit when
using this product.
7.6 Water removal in channels (idle run)
1)
2) Direct the nozzle to your cuspidor. Depress your foot control
without water supply from the dental unit. Run for 1 minute
to remove water remaining in the channels of polisher.
A T T E N T I O N
Run polisher for 1 minute without powder before use. If water remains inside of the main body, powder will become damp and
cause clogging.

2) Detach the powder cap by turning in the direction of the
arrow in the illustration above.
3)
4) If water, oil, or powder remains inside of powder chamber
or powder cap, remove it with a dry cloth.
5) Fill sodium hydrogen carbonate powder not exceeding 15 g
into the powder cap.
* The powder must be placed into the powder
cap. Take care not to spill the powder over the
thread of the powder cap. If the powder is spilt
over the thread, wipe it off with a dry cloth.
Filling too much powder will make the powder
adhere to the powder seal and cause
premature wear of the powder seal or
incomplete sealing.
6) Hold the chamber unit downward and the powder cap
upward as shown in the illustration. Turn the powder cap in
the direction of the arrow until it stops.

7.9 Treatment
1) Patient, operator, and assistant protection
(a) Operator and assistant must be wear protective eyewear and anti-dust mask.
(b) Protect the patient’s face (other than oral cavity) with towels or protective eyewear.
* If the patient wears contact lenses, the patient must remove them before treatment.
(c) When spraying into an area around soft tissues such as gingiva, protect it with cotton in advance.
C A U T I O N
1) When using, the operator and assistant(s) must wear protective eyewear and anti-dust masks full-time. If the powder gets
into your eyes, wash your eyes with water and consult an eye doctor.
2) During a treatment with polisher, protect the patient with towels or protective eyewear so that the powder does not enter
mucous membranes (eyes, nose, tracheae) other than intraoral.
2) Spraying
Make your vacuum suction system ready to remove scattered powder. Direct the nozzle to tooth surface and depress your foot
control to start spraying.
* The prevention ability of tooth against discoloration is decreased after cleaning. Instruct the patient
not to smoke or have foods or beverages with strong coloring effect such as tea and coffee for two
or three hours after treatment.
○
○ Keep distance of 2 to 5 mm from the tooth surface.
○ Spray from gingival margin to occlusal surface. Suction the spray with your vacuum suction system and avoid soft tissues.
○ When cleaning a large area, spray while moving the nozzle minutely.
○ The powder may be sprayed for a few seconds after releasing your foot control due to the residual pressure within the powder
chamber. Collect the powder with your vacuum suction to avoid damaging soft tissues.
○ Have the patient wash out his/her mouth as needed or after treatment.
