How We Keep Our Patients Safe And Healthy
When creating the sterilization protocols for our dental office Dr. Sadineni & Team followed the recommendations of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA), and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). By following their recommendations, we not only keep you healthy, but we protect the environment and keep you safe.
Some of the precautions and procedures that are a part of our daily routine here at Dublin Metro Dental include:
- Using steam sterilizers, dental autoclaves and dental sterilizers to clean and disinfect reusable instruments
- Requiring all staff to wear face masks
- Requiring dental staff to wear gloves — new gloves are worn each and every time staff comes into contact with a patient
- Regularly cleaning countertops and other surfaces with EPA approved chemical cleaners that can not only clean, but disinfect
- Keeping disinfected soap at all sinks throughout our office
- Disinfecting instruments and equipment before and after use
Our Sterilization Process
Our staff follows a very strict sterilization process to keep you safe.
- Use an ultrasonic cleaner to remove any debris, germs and bacteria that may be present on the equipment or instrument
- Wrap newly cleaned instruments and equipment in an FDA compliant packaging
- Use FDA approved dental autoclaves to sterilize equipment so viruses and germs are killed
- Clean and disinfect all surfaces and machines after use with an EPA approved cleaner
- Safely and properly store all cleaned and disinfected equipment and instruments until they are ready for use
Committed To Your Wellbeing
All of our staff are committed to keeping you safe and healthy. That is why every member of our dental team goes through extensive training in our safety and sterilization protocols. Our staff holds regular meetings and attends training seminars and workshops to keep up with ever-changing technology and sterilization techniques.
