The TEAM Talk from EADT eV - the interactive online format for knowledge exchange - goes into the next round on July 5, 2023. The topic is as explosive as it is current: “More hygiene please! Cleaning medical devices – focus on abutment hygiene”
The focus of TEAM Talk #3 is on three key questions about abutment hygiene, which we examine from the different perspectives of EADT eV - dentistry, dental technology, materials science and the dental industry. Participants receive well-founded information for everyday work and can submit their questions and comments. First, the specific questions are discussed and then discussed. A well-prepared moderation ensures a targeted exchange of ideas and concise results. One hour – one topic; short – crisp – intense.

Insight into the topic
Our topic “More hygiene please!” “Focus on Abutment Hygiene” deals with the cleaning of individual abutments. As semi-critical and critical Medical Devices Implant abutments require proper and thorough cleaning, although standard evaporation alone must be considered inadequate as a cleaning method.
A fundamental distinction must be made between cleaning with hot steam, ultrasonic cleaning and chemical cleaning with different agents (alcohols, etc.); We will take a closer look at these during the TEAM talk. We also refer to study results and scientific studies to consider detailed cleaning procedures. The aim is to raise awareness of the topic and discuss practical and reproducible workflows to achieve a clean abutment according to generally accepted guidelines.
Central questions of the TEAM talk #3
- What does the legislature require?
- Which cleaning methods are available (blasting, cleaning protocol, autoclave, etc.)?
- What is practical in everyday life?
The special feature of the TEAM talk (online) is the high practical relevance and the format of a talk session. Targeted questions are discussed from the different perspectives of EADT eV (dentistry, dental technology, science and dental technology). Participants receive reliable, well-founded information for everyday work and can ask questions.
