Common Questions

Q: I have forgotten the code for the SIROLaser.

A: The safety code is 6251.

Q: Does the SIROLaser accommodate disposable tips?

A: Yes.  The SIROLaser now accommodates disposable tips.  Just order part number 6187715 from Sirona Dental Systems.  This part is referred to as a "nose cone".  It screws on to the end of your current handpiece and is narrow enough to accommodate disposable tips.  20ga bendable tips are what we recommend.

Q: What fibers are available for the SIROLaser?

A: We have 3 different fibers.  The 200nm and 320nm fiber come with the SIROLaser.  We also have a 400nm fiber available for purchase.  All 3 fibers are 3 meters in length.

Q:How do I cleave the fiber?

A: Use the scissors included with your SIROLaser.  Score the the fiber approx. 1cm from the end.  Break off the fiber.  If you have a round donut shaped aiming beam you have cleaved the fiber successfully.  If it's not round, repeat the cleaving process.

Q: I am getting an interlock error code.

A: The Y-Connector or interlock bridge is not connected correctly.  Turn off the SIROLaser and check the interlock connection.  Make sure that it is plugged in and screwed in.
