Procedure for disinfecting PVS elastomeric impression materials with OPTIM OS1
- Once the impression is taken, rinse it well under running tap water to remove blood and saliva.
- After rinsing, gently shake the impression within the sink basin to remove any adherent water with minimal splatter.
- Spray the entire impression with OPTIM OS1. Use the contact times as stated on the label.
- Rinse the impression thoroughly with tap water to remove any excess disinfectant. After a thorough rinse, gently
shake the impression inside the sink basin to remove any adherent water with minimal splatter. - Once dry, place the disinfected impression in a sealed bag.
The impression is now safe and ready for further processing.
