emergenCy TermInaTIon of laser emIssIons
The SOL Laser has been designed with several methods to
terminate emission of laser energy in emergency situations.
These methods include an emergency shutoff switch, a key
switch and a power switch.
c inDiCATiOns FOR UsE
The SOL Laser is intended for use by dental
professionals in the treatment of dental patients
for a variety of oral soft tissue procedures.
The SOL Laser is not intended for hard tissue procedures.
The SOL Laser is indicated for use in dental intraoral
soft tissue general, oral maxilla-facial and cosmetic
surgery including ablating, incising, excising, vaporizing
and coagulation of soft tissues using a fiber optic
delivery system.

•
Treatment of aphthous ulcers
•

In addition to receiving proper training in the use of
dental lasers, users should be familiar and experienced
with these procedures using electrosurgical devices or
traditional instruments before performing them on patients
with the SOL Laser. Non-experienced users should seek
appropriate training guidance before attempting clinical
treatments with the SOL Laser system.

COnsiDERATiOns
In order to insure the safe use of the SOL Laser in your fa-
cility, please check to make sure that the proposed location
is compatible with the specifications listed below.
PoWer reQuIremenTs
External AC/DC Power Supply:
Input Power - 110 – 120
240 V AC @ 50Hz 350mA
Output Power – 30W + 12
HeaTIng and venTIlaTIon
The optimal temperature range of 20º - 30ºC (68º - 86º
F). Avoid storing or transporting the lasers in temperatures
below 0º Celsius (32º F).
CombusTIble CHemICals and gases
All gases that are combustible or support combustion and
are used in the operatory area where the SOL Laser is
being operated must be turned off during the procedure.
Cleaning supplies or other flammable chemical compounds
should be stored in an area away from the surgical site
in order to avoid possible combustion. Do not use in the
presence of supplemental therapeutic oxygen supplies for
patients with respiratory or related diseases.
Plume evaCuaTIon
Plume evacuation should be addressed when vaporizing
tissues. A high volume vacuum system should be used and
0.1 micron or less high filtration masks that are suitable for
virus and bacterial control should be worn by clinicians.
oPeraTory aCCess durIng sol laser use
Access to the treatment area should be restricted while the
lasers are in use. A sign indicating "LASER IN USE" should
be placed in a designated area adjacent to the treatment
area entry location.
