Sterilization Protocols 

Instrument Sterilization

Our dental instrument goes through a multi-step processing system to ensure they are thoroughly sterilized before use. 
  1. Transport: Used instruments are carefully transported to a designed area for cleaning. 
  2. Cleaning: Instruments are scrubbed to remove surface debris followed by a cycle in an ultrasonic cleaner with chemical agents that contain enzymes to break down biofilm.
  3. Rinsing & Drying: All instruments are then rinsed to remove residual debris and chemical cleaner and allowed to dry. 
  4. Packaging: Wraps and pouches are used to package instruments which are then sealed to prevent air exposure. 
  5. Sterilizing:  Instruments are then placed in an autoclave machine that uses high heat, steam, and pressure to sterilize them. 
  6. Storing:  Finally, sterile instrument packages are stored in closed and dry cabinets.
  7. The effectiveness of all our sterilization equipment is routinely tested to ensure safety.

Dental Operatory Disinfection

  • All surface areas in the dental room are disinfected before and after each patient. We use Cavicide, a EPA approved hospital grade disinfectant that kills HBV, HCV, bacteria and fungi. 
  • Barrier tapes are placed on all high touch surfaces and changed between patient to keep surfaces free from contamination. 
  • Water lines are flushed routinely to prevent cross contamination. DentaPure®, a multi-award winning dental unit waterline treatment is used to ensure cleanliness of the water.

Personal Protective Equipment

  • All doctors and assistants are trained in infection control protocols according to CDC and ADA guidelines. 
  • Proper PPE (medical grade masks and gloves) is worn during treatment and changed with every patient.
