Infection Control And Sterilization

Infection Control
What most concern us, healthcare provider and the patient is the spread of disease (eg. HIV, Hepatitis B) during treatment. It can be spread from patient to patient or from patient to the healthcare provider. Therefore, this spread of disease has to be stopped or minimized. No one wants to get a disease when he  just come to clinic for a dental checkup.
There are various way to control infection:
  • Wearing gloves (new gloves of every patient), face mask, eye shields, gown
  • Use only sterilized instruments which are pouched to prevent exposure before used
  • Use more disposable material such as paper cup, bib, wrapping paper and saliva suction tip
  • Single use only for any sharp objects such as needle, blade, and suture material
  • Using disinfectant to disinfect surfaces or handles after every patient.

All these infection control protocol has already been practiced in our clinic to prevent infection spread.


Sterilization
Dental instruments which are non-disposable has to be cleaned, ultrasonic bathed, dried and pouched (put into a bag) before sterilizing.

The dental instruments are ultrasonic cleaned


 We pouched our instruments before sterilizing. After sterilization the pouched instrument are kept in the drawer (Below)




Autoclave
Most dental clinic use autoclave unit to sterilize their instruments. Autoclave unit uses highly pressurized stream to penetrated deep into the pouches to kill microorganism (including virus, bacteria or spore).
According to the European Standard EN 13060, autoclave are divided into:

Type B- It has 3-times per-vacuum preceding vacuum drying. It can be used on wrapped and hollow instruments, which means a piece of equipment can be sterilized now for use later. This is the most effective autoclave as the steam able to penetrates deep into the pouches/wrappers or even double pouched instruments.


Type S - Comes with a one times pre-vacuum and vacuum drying function and efficient quick spraying steam generator. It can't be used to sterilize instruments which are double pouch or the instruments which are wrapped in the thick wrapper/pouch.

Type N - This autoclave comes without vacuum function, it can be used for hollow instruments and solid instruments.This autoclaves are only suitable for a specific type of load--for solid, unwrapped instruments.
 
Type B European Standard Autoclave - It has the highest standard among the type S and type N. It allows deep penetration into pouched/wrapped instrument. Type B Autoclave used widely in operating theater and it is used in our clinic too.

Aesthetic Filling


We are using high quality filling materials which are not only strong but match with your teeth perfectly. No one will even notice it. Take a look at some of cases that were done in our clinic...


Gaps between teeth can be reduced with veneers or crowns. However, the simplest way to have them done is by using white fillings.


Any fractured tooth can be restored with composite fillings. You will be able to enjoy your food better and smile big smiles.


Even a chipped tooth due to a fall can be restored!!

Composite filling material was used to improve the shape and colour of old veneers of all the front teeth

Decay and gap seen at the right central incisor was restored with aesthetic fillings


Multiple old sliver restorations was replaced with composite fillings which resulted in the fillings almost undetectable

Why we need regular dental check-up?

It is important to go to a DENTIST regularly for dental check-up....... Even though without any problem or PAIN!! Why???


Basic examination tools

The answers are simple:

1. To have your teeth cleaned (or scaling).... to remove all the tartar that stick all around your teeth. (Blushing alone without scaling is not enough. You require professional help!!)


if not, you teeth is going to end up like these


The tartar that attach to your teeth surface will lead to gum inflammation (gingivitis) and later; gum recession  and bone resorption (periodontitis). Then finally... teeth become shaky (mobile) and drop out by themselves!! -too late!!


2. To have your teeth checked. Almost all tooth decay started without any symptom (eg. pain, sensitive). It takes about a year to grow significantly big. And treatment for SMALL DECAY is very simple -- SMALL FILLING which is cheaper, painless and lasting.
    However, when the tooth decay is too big (usually it gives you sensitive, pain or disturb your sleep), then the approach is different. The tooth might required large filling -- uhh!! (expensive, painful, required injection) or maybe root canal treatment followed by a crown (because the pulp is infected) or maybe extraction!!

Example of a very large tooth decay




Conclusion
So, go to your dentist 6 monthly or twice a year!!
 or
When you receive our RECALL POSTCARD

please make an appointment with us for scaling and dental check-up
if
you don't want to end up like her....
