Sterilisation & clinic hygiene: how we protect you at every visit

Instrument sterilisation

1. Cleaning: instruments are washed and residue is removed in an ultrasonic cleaner.
2. Packaging: each instrument set is sealed in a sterilisation pouch.
3. Autoclave sterilisation: pressurised high-temperature steam kills all bacteria, viruses and spores.
4. Opened in front of you: the sealed pouch is opened at the start of your treatment.

Single-use items

Needles, gloves, masks, rinsing cups, suction tips and chair covers are all used for one patient only and then discarded.

Surfaces, water and air

• The chair, surfaces and everything touched are disinfected between patients with approved products.
• The dental unit water lines are disinfected and cleaned regularly.
• Good ventilation and air filtration in the treatment rooms.

Our team

• Hand washing and disinfection before and after every patient.
• Personal protective equipment: gloves, mask, glasses or face shield.
• Regular training in infection-control protocols.

What can you ask as a patient?

You have every right to ask: “Are the instruments autoclaved?” and “Will you open the pouch in front of me?”. Any responsible clinic welcomes these questions.
