Prosthetic planning kit manual

These are the recommended instructions for use for the surgical applications of the NucleOSS Dental Implant system. Treatment and surgical planning should be performed on the basis of clinical data and the physician’s evaluation of the case.

The kit consists of specialised measurement and positioning tools that allow the dentist to select the most accurate abutment angle, gingival height and platform diameter in implant-supported applications.

• It involves physically testing and trying on the angle and height values of the prosthetic component to be placed on the implant screw.
• It prevents incorrect abutment selection and provides full compatibility with abutment-level or screw-mounted prostheses.
• Such kits typically include trial abutments and impression pins with varying angles (e.g. 0°, 15°, 25°) and gingival distances.

For indications, contraindications and MRI information, see the implant instructions for use.

• Manual hex driver in the Prosthesis Driver Kit

Each group of parts is used in the same way: choose the part for the planned abutment type, place it in the implant, and read the diameter and gingival height (GH) from it. The part placed in the implant is called the “impression part”.

• Straight titanium abutments
• 15° angled abutments
• 25° angled abutments
• 0° NO-HEX multi-unit abutments
• 17° NO-HEX multi-unit abutments
• 30° NO-HEX multi-unit abutments

• Prosthesis Driver Kit

For the last four rows, the ratchet drivers and the manual hex driver are listed together, without assigning a driver to each torque value. No more than 10 Ncm may be applied with the hex drivers, and never final torque.

• Screws & retention components
• Ball abutments
• Equator® abutments
• 0° NO-HEX multi-unit abutments
• Straight HEX multi-unit abutments
• 17° NO-HEX multi-unit abutments
• 30° NO-HEX multi-unit abutments
• Multi-unit auxiliary components

Maintenance and cleaning of surgical hand tools:

• Careful use of all tools is extremely important.
• Even the slightest damage to the ends of the drill adversely affects cutting performance and therefore the clinical outcome.
• Even if a drill is used correctly and is clean, its cutting performance is reduced after a certain number of uses. The maximum milling for NucleOSS drills is 15 times.
• Avoid contact between the ends of the drills and any hard surface other than the bone.
• Use each surgical set piece according to its purpose and method of use. Other uses may damage the part.
• Never allow surgical residues (blood, bone and other tissue residues) to dry on a tool. Clean immediately after surgery.
• Clean thoroughly with only soft brushes so as not to cause wear and scratches on the tools. If necessary, remove the removable parts of the tools and clean the gaps.
• Never disinfect, clean (also ultrasound) or sterilise instruments made of different materials together.
• Use only cleaning agents and disinfectants for the material and follow the manufacturer’s instructions for use.
• Rinse disinfectants and cleaning agents thoroughly with water.
• Never leave or store tools moist or wet.

Caution. The manufacturer accepts no responsibility for devices initially delivered non-sterile, regardless of who performs the sterilisation or by what method. Because conditions and environments vary, the ultimate responsibility for implementing and verifying procedures to achieve sterility rests with the user. Non-sterile surgical instruments should not be used under any circumstances.

1. Place properly cleaned and dried instruments into the designated slots inside the surgical set box.
2. The surgical set is made of highly impact-resistant plastic materials suitable for autoclave sterilisation. In clinical autoclaves the parts can be sterilised as a single piece without being removed from the box.
3. Place the surgical set container in the autoclave bag.
4. After the cycle is complete, remove the surgical sets from the steriliser and place the tray on a padded surface to prevent condensation during cooling.

Caution. Do not stack boxes while performing the sterilisation process, as this may affect sterilisation effectiveness.

The sterilisation processes are validated in accordance with the current international standard, ISO 17665:2024. The manufacturer’s instructions for use for all detergents, cleaning solutions and equipment and accessories used in cleaning and disinfecting the devices must be strictly followed.

After sterilisation, store the devices in a dry, dark place, such as a closed cupboard or drawer.
