Very few needs but when we call you respond quickly. im3 Service, Wichita, KS. USA. There is no comparison!! Our old unit was one speed, tortuous slow and the im3 unit introduced us to the concept of high speed drills and water! The ultrasonic scaler also made a huge difference to the way we performed dentals and the results were spectacular clean smooth teeth. Pro2000, GS and 42-12, Canberra Vet Hospital, AUS. Faster, easier to use, quieter, less tooth damage, in a class of its own compared to anything else! 42-12, Utah USA. Workhorse has provided quality service to the CT centre. Used 8 hours per day for all intradisciplines of dentistry. Pro 2000, Milford, CT. USA. The im3 is superior in every way the handpieces are of much higher quality, the CLS flush system gives me piece of mind NO COMPARISON!! Pro2000 and 42-12, Carbondale, CO. USA. The is much better as it greatly reduces the time for scaling; it is more gentle on the enamel and is less cumbersome (no foot pedal) Pro 2000 & Gordon Veterinary Hospital, NSW aus. A wonderful improvement! I love the fibre optic handpiece and the techs love the ease of use of the scaling and polishing aspects. Pro 2000, Kentwood, MI. USA.

4 > Rabbits and Rodents im3 s Rabbit and Rodent instruments have been developed with the help of a leading veterinary exotic specialist. Many of the changes are subtle to provide the veterinarian with user friendly designs. Incisor Luxator Used to aid extraction of rabbit incisors. The instrument is used to break down periodontal ligaments on the distal and medial aspects of the incisor teeth. Molar Luxator Designed for the extraction of rabbit cheek teeth. This instrument is used to break down periodontal ligaments on all four aspects of the premolar and molar teeth. Incisor Luxator ITEM CODE D1026 Molar Luxator ITEM CODE D1027 Spatula ITEM CODE D1028 Cheek Teeth Extraction Forceps ITEM CODE D1029 Rabbit Molar cutters ITEM CODE D1045 Spatula Enhances examination of the teeth by repositioning the tongue and cheeks.

The instruments jaws are narrow and angled at 100º to improve access to the cheek teeth. New Design Rabbit Molar cutters Ideal for trimming excessively long cheek teeth which should then be smoothed off using the extra long diamond bur (Pictured page 19 D2235). By reducing the length with the molar cutters first, this will reduce Bur wear and possible thermal injury to the tooth. Care should be taken to avoid NEW tooth fractures and soft tissue damage. Cheek Dilator X-Small ITEM CODE D1035 Cheek Dilator Small ITEM CODE D1030 Cheek Dilator Large ITEM CODE D1031 Cheek Dilator Long Reach ITEM CODE D Cheek Dilator X-Small Suitable for very small mammals where the small cheek dilator is found to be too big.

Used in im3 s unique flush system for the high speed handpiece to minimise bacterial and slime build-up. im3 guarantees that CLS Solution when prepared and used as directed will not block the water system of any dental machine or Ultrasonic Scaler (normal chlorhexadine will). Trials in the U.S. have shown a substantial reduction in bur cutting time when glycerin is used in the solution. Chlorhexidine is light sensitive and must be used in either a brown PET bottle or an opaque plastic tank (1L Brown PET Bottles are available through im3) Rock and Rolls with the blue colour indicates im3 s unique lubrication.

14 > im3 R&R Prophy Paste Adequate dental polishing is a must! No matter what method is used to remove supragingival calculus and plaque (ultrasonic scaler, sonic scaler or hand scaling), grooves are left in the enamel surface. Unless the enamel surface is polished smooth using polishing cups and the appropriate paste, it will attract more plaque. R&R polishing paste has been specially formulated for use with im3 R&R oscillating disposable prophy angles. Convenient to use individual cups help reduce cross contamination and minimise the transfer of viruses between animals. No splatter and contains no fluoride or flavour oils.

The plaque needs to be removed before it hardens into more calculus, forms in the gingival sulcus and gingivitis turns into periodontitis (oral osteomylitis). Periodontitis brings attachment loss, bone loss and eventually, tooth loss. There is systemic damage occurring in the kidneys, liver and heart when plaque is present in the mouth. The im3 ic Plaque Disclosing Swabs show when plaque is present on the teeth. These applicators are quick and easy to use. By simply rolling the swab gently across the teeth at the gum edge the plaque stains pink to indicate germ-filled layers on the teeth. This is a visible sign of periodontal disease. And it s there simple and easy for your client to see. 3 Plaque is the cause of Periodontal Disease 3 Plaque is invisible until stained 3 Highlights the areas where plaque is present you will be suprised by how much plaque is present! 3 It is a helpful tool in painting a picture of the animal s oral health for the owner 3 Useful when scaling the animal s teeth to ensure that all the plaque has been removed during the procedure 3 Saves time scaling, by indicating the plaque and Calculus not stains on the teeth 3 Will increase dental procedures within the clinic 3 Quick and easy to use 14

20 > Ultrasonic Scaler A UK Veterinary dental expert said this of the im Ultrasonic Scaler: The increased speed with which an effective prophylaxis can be carried out, the power (often cracking off the calculus is not required) and the ability to use safely sub-gingivally, make it a worthwhile investment.

Veterinary Dentistry is the way to improve your bottom line and your clients appreciation of what you do. An often quoted figure is 80% of all small animals over 2 years of age have some form of periodontal disease... Are you treating them? If not, why not? Dentistry should not be thought of as cosmetic, but rather a total health solution as periodontal disease can and does affect the heart, lungs, liver and kidneys. Bad breath is the first sign and owners hate it. You will need: An air driven Dental Unit, preferably with a fibre optic light in the high speed handpiece to enable you to see what you are doing... (overhead lights don t work as your head gets in the way) A scaler that can scale sub-gingival pockets, the source of plaque and ultimately calculus. Hand scaling is too laborious and too time consuming. With the right equipment and a lecture or two from a veterinary dental specialist you are on your way... A canine can be extracted from start to finish in under 10 minutes... Now armed with all this knowledge and the right equipment, you re ready. > GS 1.
