The contents of sterile tip/flue packs are sterile, single use only. You can
resterilize unused tips and flues one time.
You have two options for attaching tips to the handpiece:
• Attach the tip on the sterile field.
• Attach the tip before sterilizing the handpiece. If you use this option,
do not change tips on the sterile field. The area under the tip threads
will not be sterile.
