Infection Control
Infection controls and universal precautions protect clients and staff alike. Everyone
benefits from rigorous infection control — you, your dentist, and the dental team. The cornerstone in a good and safe dental practice is the element of trust. You should feel free to discuss this topic with Dr. Wang and receive a straightforward answer. Dr. Wang and our entire team follow procedures recommended by several federal
agencies: the Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA), the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). These measures include:
Disinfectant hand soap.
Gloves and face masks.
Chemical disinfection of all surfaces.
Disposing of hazard materials.
Sterilization of all equipment before every use.
We sterilize all reusable equipment, including dental hand pieces. We use the state of
art Midmark M11 and SciCan Statim G4 autoclave, devices that kill bacteria and viruses
by steam, heat and pressure.
The best defense against disease is information. The more you know, the better
equipped you are to make wise decisions about your health care. The more you know
about our daily procedures and policies, the more comfortable you will feel.
