The dental treatment unit with accessories is intended to supply power to and serve as a base for dental devices and accessories. This product includes a dental chair. The dental treatment unit is intended for use in the dental clinic environment and is used by trained dentists and/or dental assistants. The motors serve as drives for rotating and oscillating straight and contra-angle hand pieces in connection with a dental treatment unit. They are used for endodontic and general dental purposes. The SPRAYVIT M multifunctional syringe is used for dental treatment with unheated air and heated water. It is also used to illuminate the preparation field.
Device Story
TENEO is a dental operating system comprising a patient chair, foot control, dentist/assistant elements, and water unit. It serves as a base for dental instruments (handpieces, motors, curing lights, scalers). Inputs include user-defined parameters (torque, speed, power) via touch panel or foot control; electrical impedance signals for ApexLocator function. The device transforms inputs into mechanical chair positioning, motor-driven instrument operation, and fluid/suction management. It provides an integrated therapy package for endodontics and implantology, featuring electronic torque limitation and file library. The ApexLocator uses mucosal electrodes to estimate root canal file position, providing acoustic/visual feedback. The system includes automated infection control (waterline sanitization, suction hose cleaning). Used in dental clinics by dentists/assistants; output (chair position, instrument activation, endodontic measurements) assists in clinical decision-making and procedural efficiency. Benefits include ergonomic patient positioning, integrated procedural control, and automated maintenance of hygiene standards.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Clinical assessment conducted via critical analysis of the benefit-risk ratio by a dental practitioner. Compliance with performance standards including ISO 7494-1/2, ISO 10993-1/5/10, IEC 60601-1, IEC 62304, and ISO 14971. Sterilization and biocompatibility testing provided.
Technological Characteristics
Dental operative unit with motorized patient chair, dentist/assistant elements, and water unit. Materials comply with ISO 10993 and ISO 21530. Features include BL/BL ISO C/BL Implant motors, SPRAYVIT M syringe, and ApexLocator. Connectivity includes USB and network interfaces. Software lifecycle follows IEC 62304. Sterilization via validated methods for reusable components. Energy source: electrical. Form factor: floor-mounted unit with swiveling/sliding components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use in dental clinics by trained dentists or dental assistants for general dental and endodontic procedures.

{5}------------------------------------------------
#### PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION 6
The dental treatment center is designed to bring a patient into an ergonomic and comfortable position to perform dental treatment procedures. For this purpose, the patient chair can be brought into an appropriate position, either by activating the chair positioning motors or by recalled programmed positions set by the user. The headrest is adjusted manually by motor according to patient height and the area in the patient's oral cavity to be treated. The treatment is performed by the instruments placed in the designated instrument holders. The required parameters (e.g. power, torque, speed, cooling media) can be adjusted via a touch panel or recalled from settings programmed by the user beforehand. After taking an instrument from its respective holder, it can be activated via the foot control. To place dental hand instruments and materials required during treatment tray surfaces are provided.
To dispose fluids and particles deriving from the oral cavity during treatment, suction hoses with attached handpieces are provided on the assistant element. Picking the suction handpieces activates the vacuum. For disposal also a cuspidor bowl is available. The cuspidor can be manually swiyeled towards the patient chair. The cuspidor bowl automatically returns beforehand to ensure that the patient does not collide with it during chair movements.
An operating light providing illumination to the oral cavity can be switched on via the touch panel or is operated automatically in accordance with preset adjustments in connection with the pre-programmed chair positions. It can be also switched on/off via a no-touch sensor which recognizes when the hand is moved there. Most chair and instrument related functions can be activated hands-free via foot control. The foot control is also available with wireless transmission. The touch screen style user interface applies context-sensitivity; i.e. according to the actual operational state, varying buttons and functions are displayed and provided for use. Prescribed procedures and supporting components apply to facilitate infection control and maintaining water quality, such as automated suction hose and instrument hose purge, automatic dosage of waterline treatment and suction cleaning agents, integrated cleaning adapters for hoses. Water supply is also possible using self-containing systems.
As an option TENEO can integrate into a therapy package, including the endodontic and implantology functions.
The therapy package integrates electronic torque limitation and a file library, containing different current file systems and their recommended torque settings. The ApexLocator is a support function to determine the position of a file in the root canal It can be used with an x-ray image of the tooth for root canal measurements. During the endodontic treatment, the user receives file position information. This is achieved using electrical impedance with mucosal electrode and a conductive

connection between root file and the TENEO. An acoustic signal and a diagram submit the information. Exact length measurements from the root canal file to the physiological apex (apical constriction) are not provided. The root canal has to be detected via X-ray.
Also a peristaltic pump and a NaCl bottle holder can be attached to the dentist element. The peristaltic pump prepares a sterile saline solution instead of spray water for cooling. This system connects as a "closed system" to the TENEO to ensure full sterility.
TENEO has a motor-driven headrest, which can be moved via the touchscreen or a 4-way switch at the backside of the headrest. The motor-driven headrest allows the following adjustments: extension/retraction to adapt to the patient's stature, tilting for maxillary/mandibular treatment. Moreover the removable head pad with magnetic holder allows shifting/rotation of the head support. Also a mechanical adjustment of headrest tilt is possible.
