Patient Protection

At Charlestown Dental Care we prioritise your safety by surpassing the sterilization requirements set by the CDC and OSHA.

Our sterilisation process involves the following steps:

• Dental instruments are thoroughly cleaned with an ultrasonic cleaner to remove all debris.
• The cleaned instruments are then placed in sterilisation pouches.
• These pouches undergo heat sterilisation in a steam autoclave machine, ensuring they are ready for safe use.
• Before each patient is seated, all operators undergo thorough cleaning and disinfection.
• Regular biological monitoring of our office steriliser is conducted to verify proper use and functionality. This essential aspect of infection control is recommended by esteemed organizations like the Centers for Disease Control, The American Hospital Association, and the American Association of Medical Instrumentation.

Your health and well-being are of the utmost importance to us, and our dental office takes every precaution to ensure a clean and hygienic environment for your care.
