Introduction
The Kreativ Mach 5.0 and Mach 5.0 PLUS systems are compact, highly reliable, state-
of-the-art instruments designed for Air Abrasive MicroDentistry. They are designed as
a means of removing tooth structure and other materials to prepare teeth for restoration,
and as an adjunct to the high speed dental handpiece and bur. These instruments were
developed after extensive consultation with dentists in order to provide the optimum
performance, taking into consideration patient comfort and the time constraints faced by
today’s 21st Century dental office.
Note: Clinical use of the Kreativ Mach 5.0 and Mach 5.0 PLUS air abrasion systems
for procedures not included or suggested in this instruction guide is not advised.
Similarly, the Kreativ Mach 5.0 and Mach 5.0 PLUS systems should be only used by
dental professionals who have practiced on extracted teeth and who are thoroughly
familiar with this manual.

Information essential to the installation, operation, and routine maintenance of the Mach
5.0 and the Mach 5.0 PLUS devices manufactured by Kreativ, Inc., is included in this
manual. The instructions are written specifically for personnel who have been trained in

A full selection of abrasive powders and nozzle sizes are available from your nearest
