Do you sometimes use household cleaners in the cuspidor? This is not a good idea, as it can permanently damage the suction system. The reason for this is the strong foaming property of such cleaners. The foam gets into the system via the cuspidor and from there to the suction system. The foam has fatal consequences in the system and can even lead to failure - the worst-case scenario for a dental practice. The video shows the damage caused by foam in the suction system.
To prevent such damage, only cleaning agents and disinfectants that are specifically approved for this purpose should be used for the suction system, including the mouth rinsing basin. Dürr Dental, as the manufacturer and inventor of dental suction systems, developed the first such agent 60 years ago with Orotol and was able to draw on its expertise in the field of dental suction. Like Orotol plus, the special cleaner MD 555 cleaner and the MD 550 mouth rinse cleaner from Dürr Dental are also foam-free. Find out more about the products here.
Incidentally, the manufacturer of the suction system accepts no liability for improper use and warranty claims may be invalidated. Therefore, only use suitable agents for your suction system and follow the manufacturer's recommendations.
