Patient info
The need to operate in an outpatient environment that guarantees proper instrument sterilization is a current and very important issue. Therefore, the procedures and the organization of the office must guarantee the highest levels of sterilization for infection control. For the safety of patients and of the dental team, all personnel are vaccinated against Hepatitis B. In addition to the use of protective barriers, such as latex gloves and face masks, there is also a large use of disposable materials like air/water spray syringes, syringes for anaesthesia, saliva ejectors and sheets for protecting the patient. All drill cords are covered with disposable sheaths. Drills are sterilized after each use, burs and instruments are put into bags individually and sterilized. These procedures are carried out in your and our interest because even dentists and auxiliaries can prick themselves with infected instruments. Therefore, it is not only the patient’s health that is being protected but also those who work in the dental office. The need to operate in an outpatient environment that guarantees proper instrument sterilization is a current and very important objective.
