2.2.2 Laser Safety
The S3 medical diode laser system is safe and reliable when used by trained
personnel who take proper care in their operation.
Be aware of adjacent structures and substructures within the oral cavity. Do
not direct the laser energy toward hard surfaces such as a tooth, bone,
fillings or metallic surfaces. Avoid bone contact and never treat
perpendicular to any bone surface.
Only use the laser device in a clinical environment that adheres to
standardize aseptic techniques for oral procedures.
Hazard from electrical power
Electrical shock
Do not open any protective covers.
Do not place any liquids on the device.
In the event of an accidental ingress of a liquid, immediately stop the
procedure, disconnect the power cable and contact PIOON after sales
maintenance for assistance.
Note
All optical components, especially the parts of the laser delivery system,
must be handled with great care and protected from dust and dirt.
The S3 medical diode laser is a Class 4 laser system. Precautions should
be taken to avoid accidental exposure to both directed and reflected laser
beams. Severe eye or skin damage may be caused by diffused reflections
of the laser beam.
The laser beam from most of laser diodes is usually not visible to the
human eye, which can seriously damage retinal tissue.
DO NOT look directly into the laser beam or into the working end of the
optical fiber. Reflected laser beam may also cause retinal damage.
Avoid aiming the laser beam in the direction of reflective surfaces.
