Sterilization

At our clinic, we follow a strict sterilization protocol, as detailed below:

• All used instruments are first hand cleaned.
• All hand cleaned instruments are then soaked and cleaned in a digital ultrasonic cleaner with an ENZYMATIC ultrasonic disinfectant liquid to breakdown the toughest of organic grit.
• All Ultrasonically cleaned and dried instruments are then carefully sealed in Sterilization pouches.
• Sealed Sterilization Pouches are then Autoclaved at 121oC under 15 pounds pressure for 15 minutes before the drying cycle.
• Autoclaved Pouches are then kept in safe storage, until next use.
• Multiple sets of instruments are pouch sterilized and kept in storage. A fresh pouch is opened for Every Patients.
• Disposable items, such as disposable injections, sutures, gloves, mouth masks, cotton rolls, napkins etc., are used wherever possible.
• Root Canal Files are sterilized in a Glass Bead Sterilizer.
