Sterilization

Since instrument sterilization is of great concern to everyone, we wanted to let you know how committed we are to safety, health and your protection while in our office.

We wear glasses, a mask and gloves for all procedures in which we contact patients.  Gloves are removed and disposed of each time we leave the treatment room.

Every instrument is cleaned in an ultrasonic cleaner, then heat & pressure sterilized before each and every patient’s visit.  We use as many disposable items as possible, including needles, burs, and gloves.  All needles are new and sterile before use with you and discarded after one utilization.

Every surface in the treatment room is carefully cleaned and disinfected after each patient visit.

We follow strict recommendation issued by O.S.H.A., the C.D.C. or Centers for Disease Control and the American Dental Association to make every attempt to meet all measures that can be taken for your protection.

All of us here have periodic dental treatment using the same instruments and treatment areas as you.  We can assure you, all treatment is provided in a clean and safe environment.  It is our firm commitment to ensure your visit with us is not only an enjoyable experience, but also one where you can be assured peace of mind
