CLEAN AND HYGIENE

Maintaining cleanliness and hygiene in dental clinics is essential to ensure patient safety, prevent the spread of infections, and create a welcoming and professional environment. Here are key practices and considerations for maintaining cleanliness and hygiene in dental clinics:


Hand Hygiene: Our dental staff practice proper hand hygiene by washing hands thoroughly with soap and water or using hand sanitizers before and after patient contact. This helps prevent the transfer of pathogens.


Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Dental professionals at Q dental wear appropriate PPE, including gloves, masks, protective eyewear, and gowns, as needed for specific procedures. PPE helps protect both the dental team and patients.


Instrument Sterilization: Dental instruments that come into contact with patient's mouth are properly sterilized between uses. Autoclaves or other sterilization equipment are regularly maintained and monitored for effectiveness.


Surface Disinfection: All surfaces in the dental clinic, including dental chairs, countertops, and equipment, will be regularly cleaned and disinfected using appropriate disinfectants at Q Dental. High-touch surfaces should be disinfected between each patient.
