1. Use ≥ 99% Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA) for first and second wash. The use of lesser concentrations of IPA can result in improper cleaning of excess resin, and result in whitening/discoloration.
2. Confirm only Lucitone Digital Print™ (LDP) is being washed in each container. Washing multiple materials (ex: model resin and LDP) in the same container could result in cross contamination and whitening/discoloration. Do not wash Lucitone Digital IPN denture teeth in IPA that was used to clean Lucitone Digital Print™ 3D Denture Base.
3. Follow cleaning instructions for the ultrasonic cleaner. As instructed in the IFU, always perform both the first and second wash cycles. Using an ultrasonic bath, wash for 2 minutes (first cycle), then wash for 1 minute (second cycle). The container should be closed when placed in the ultrasonic bath. Wash each denture individually. Ensure all excess resin (appears white) is brushed away using a brush soaked in clean ≥ 99% IPA in between the first and second wash. Use fresh IPA for the second ultrasonic wash. Prolonged exposure to IPA could cause changes in the physical properties and discoloration. When using a brush to wipe away remaining resin, always use a brush soaked in clean ≥ 99% IPA.
4. Do not use a steam cleaner on the digital denture. The use of a steam cleaner can cause whitening/discoloration of the finished and polished denture. Dentsply Sirona recommends the use of an ultrasonic cleaner.
