Assistina FAQ’s
Q: “How often should I perform maintenance on my dental handpieces with the Assistina?”
A: “For optimal performance, instrument longevity, and patient safety, it is best practice to clean and lubricate your dental handpieces using the W&H Assistina after every single use or patient treatment. This ensures they are properly maintained before sterilization.”
Q: “What fluids are compatible with the W&H Assistina unit?”
A: “You must use the manufacturer-specified fluids to ensure proper operation and protect your warranty. This includes W&H Service Oil MD-30 for lubrication and W&H Activefluid (MC-1000) for the cleaning solution. Using third-party fluids can cause damage to both the Assistina and your handpieces.”
Q: “Can the Assistina maintain all brands of dental handpieces?”
A: “Yes, the W&H Assistina is designed to be highly versatile. With the correct quick-connect or fixed adapter, it can clean and lubricate nearly all brands of turbines, straight, and contra-angle handpieces, including KaVo, NSK, A-dec, and more. Ensure you have the proper adapter for each type of handpiece you intend to service.”
