Controls Spread of Disease – Dental practitioners should always use proper universal precautions like wearing gowns, mask, and goggles. Use of disinfectants and sterilizers are also recommended to prevent cross infection.

Stops Growth of Bacteria – Sterilization techniques should be prioritized in dental clinics to stop the growth of bacteria. Use of autoclaves are encouraged, and dental practitioners should disinfect all equipment to kill bacteria that might be adhering to these tools.

Improves Dental Reputation – When you follow standard protocol in infection control, your clients will feel safe and satisfied with your services and equipment. Word of mouth from your satisfied patients will boost your dental sales and productivity.

Protects Patient and Staff – Infection control prevents cross infection between patient-to-patient and even patient to staff, as well as staff to staff. By adhering to the infection control policies, you can be sure that the entire staff and your patients will be safe from diseases.
