Infection Control

We understand the complications caused due to lack of sterilization. Our dentists, visiting dental surgeons, nursing staff as well as administrative & support staff are well trained in one of its kind infection control and hygiene protocols used at Gulab Dental Hospital.

Working Space

  • The day begins with the floor thoroughly scrubbed using Bacillocid special (disinfection concentrate) which leaves the working area absolutely clean and smelling fresh.
  • The chairs are sprayed with Bacillol 25 (surface and equipment disinfectant) and wiped clean. This procedure is repeated after every patient to prevent any cross infection.

Disposables

We use a fresh, new pair of gloves for every patient. Gloves are disposed off immediately after every treatment. In addition we use disposable masks, suction tips, patient drapes and plastic glasses. Sealed syringes and needles are opened in front of the patient and disposed off immediately after treatment. Dentists and patients mandatorily wear "Blue Blockers" (glasses) during tooth whitening procedures to prevent any harm to the eyes.

Instrument Sterilization:

We carry out a 5 step sterilization standard used at quality healthcare facilities worldwide for all non-disposable items.

STEP 1: CLEANING OF USED INSTRUMENTS

Instruments are thoroughly cleaned under running tap water to discard debris if any and washed in antiseptic solution.

STEP 2: ULTRASONIC CLEANING

All instruments are then rinsed in ultrasonic cleaner with some specialised cleansing solutions for different type of instruments capable of removing micro debris.

STEP 3: PACKAGING

All the instruments are air dried and packaged into pouches making them reddy for autoclaving .

STEP 4: AUTOCLAVING

  • Autoclaving is the best way of sterilizing instruments. We at our end, carry out autoclaving of instruments in our advanced digital front loading Autoclave machine.
  • The Autoclave is tested in every cycleusing test strips to ensure proper functioning. This assures that all instruments are autoclaved.
  • Certain heat sensitive instruments which cannot be autoclaved are immersed in chemical sterilizing solution (Korsolex) to achieve disinfection.
  • Cold sterile instruments are then safely placed in sterile pouches that contain related items.

STEP 5: STORAGE

Packed sterilized instruments are kept in U.V. chamber to maintain sterilization.
