Usage
Designed for routine maintenance of dental instruments, crowns, bridges, dentures, and ultrasonic scaler tips, this solution excels in environments where thorough decontamination is critical. Users simply add the recommended amount of concentrate to the ultrasonic bath, typically a 1:10 dilution for standard cleaning cycles, though the MeterDose bottle allows for precise measurement to achieve the exact concentration required for more sensitive items.
The solution performs optimally in cleaning cycles ranging from 5 to 15 minutes, depending on the level of contamination. Its surfactant‑based chemistry penetrates microscopic crevices, loosening organic material while protecting metal alloys and ceramic surfaces from corrosion. This makes it suitable for daily instrument turnover in busy dental practices as well as for periodic deep‑cleaning procedures in research laboratories.

FAQ
What dilution ratio should I use for routine cleaning?
For most standard cleaning cycles, a 1 part concentrate to 10 parts water dilution provides effective removal of organic contaminants while protecting instrument surfaces. Adjust the ratio slightly for heavily soiled items or delicate components as recommended in the product’s user guide.
Is the solution safe for all types of dental materials?
Yes, the UC30 BioSonic formulation is designed to be gentle on common dental materials, including stainless steel, titanium, gold alloys, porcelain, and acrylic. It does not contain harsh acids or alkalis that could degrade these materials when used according to the recommended dilution and exposure times.
Can I use this solution in a temperature‑controlled ultrasonic bath?
Absolutely. The solution performs well at typical ultrasonic cleaning temperatures ranging from 20 °C to 60 °C. Higher temperatures can enhance cleaning efficiency, but it is important to follow the manufacturer’s guidelines to avoid excessive heat that could affect sensitive components.
How should I store the concentrate after opening?
Keep the bottle tightly sealed and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. The MeterDose cap helps maintain product stability, and the concentrate remains effective for several months when stored under these conditions.
What should I do if I experience excessive foaming?
Excessive foaming can occur if the solution is over‑diluted or if the ultrasonic bath is set to a very high power level. Reduce the concentration slightly, lower the power setting, or allow the bath to settle for a few minutes before restarting the cleaning cycle.
