• Any serious incident that has occurred in relation to the device should be reported to the manufacturer and the competent authority of the Member State in which the user and/or patient is established.

PRECAUTIONS

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

1. Iconic Original is supplied with a heat resistant protective film on both surfaces of the blank. For best results remove the film on the heat contact surface of the blank, leaving the film on the model contact surface of the blank.
   This will prevent the need to isolate the model, improving clarity. This also creates a micro gap to the the moformed  appliance, preventing the need to block out minor undercuts.

2. The model should be trimmed to a depth of 20mm (3/4”) in height.

3. Remove the palate of full arch models.

4. Vacuum / Pressure form using a machine conventionally used for themoforming.

5. Ensure Iconic Original has cooled before removing material from model. For best results use Iconic  Tricutter DBL4-101/1063.

6. Remove heat resistant film from Iconic Original.

7. Trim and finish appliance as needed. For best results use Iconic Polishing Disk 4S04-1381.

Heating time may vary upon machine. If Iconic Original does not adapt to model, add heating time until full adaptation occurs. If Iconic Original “folds” when thermoformed, reduce heating time until this does not occur.
WHEN HEATING ICONIC ORIGINAL, SAG NO MORE THAN 20MM.

SAFE DISPOSAL

• Used dental appliances may be considered a biohazard. Follow your country-specific laws, directives, standards and guidelines for the disposal of used devices.

CARE ADVICE FOR YOUR APPLIANCE

• After brushing teeth brush the top and bottom of the retainer with a soft toothbrush
• Do not brush retainer with toothpaste as this will significantly reduce the life of the retainer.
• Use cold water to wash the retainer. The retainer can also be cleaned with Retainer Brite or similar cleaning solution
• Hot water will distort the retainer
• Rinse well before and after use and dry thoroughly
• Handle the retainer with care and store in a retainer box when not in mouth
• When removing the retainer apply equal pressure to all sides of the retainer – retainer retrievers recommended for this purpose
• If the appliance becomes too tight do not force it, call your Orthodontist or Dentist
• Do not eat or drink when wearing the retainer, as acids in food and drink can considerably reduce the life of the retainer
