Sterilization
is very important in dental clinic as dental instruments are possible agents
for pathogenic transmission from patient to patient, from patient to doctor and
vice versa. With the increasing risk of cross infections by Hepatitis B and HIV
viruses, the dental clinics are bound to observe the same stringent rules in
sterilization of instruments and disinfection/maintenance of the clinic area.
About sterilization
Sterilization is the complete elimination or destruction of all forms of microbial life and is accomplished in healthcare facilities by either physical or chemical processes. Disinfection describes a process that eliminates many or all pathogenic microorganisms on inanimate objects with the exception of bacterial spores. Method of sterilization that may be used for these instruments and materials that are heat stable include steam under pressure (autoclave), chemical (formaldehyde) vapour, and dry heat. Out of these three methods steam under pressure i.e. autoclaving is the most dependable method of sterilization, where the instruments are exposed to steam under pressure of 15 pounds at 121 degree Celsius for 15 minutes. ALL bacteria and viruses are killed. Autoclaving is the best available method to sterilize reusable surgical instruments.Measures taken in our Dental Clinic to prevent cross infection
We follow a very strict sterilization protocol. Starting from the diagnostic kit for consultation of the patient, everything is disposable including the glasses, trays, gloves, face masks, suction tips, saliva ejectors, syringes for local anesthesia and bibs. The cotton and gauze are steam sterilized/ autoclaved before use. All equipment that is used in your mouth is completely sterilized.

At our Dental Clinic, we are dedicated towards our sterilization & Disinfection protocol, in order to offer the best possible protection to each and every patient that comes into our practice.
