Microbe Free Sterilization

Ensuring Sterility: Our Strict Protocols for Infection Control

Maintaining proper sterilization of dental instruments and materials is essential in preventing infections. Since harmful microorganisms are invisible to the naked eye, verifying true sterility poses a unique challenge. To ensure maximum safety, we implement a multi-step, highly effective sterilization process based on time, temperature, and proper exposure to sterilizing agents.

🔹 Ultrasonic Cleaning
Before sterilization, instruments are cleaned using ultrasonic technology. This method uses high-frequency sound waves to generate tiny, powerful bubbles through a process called cavitation. These microscopic bubbles dislodge and remove debris from the surfaces of dental tools without causing damage.

🔹 Sterile Packaging
After cleaning, instruments are sealed in specially designed sterilization packaging such as wraps, paper or plastic pouches, and nylon tubing. These materials are engineered to allow heat, steam, or gas penetration during the sterilization process while preserving sterility afterward.

🔹 Class B Autoclave Sterilization
We use a Class B autoclave, considered the gold standard in dental and medical fields. These devices operate on pre- and post-vacuum cycles to remove air from the chamber, allowing steam to penetrate deeply into wrapped, hollow, or porous instruments. Compliant with the European EN 13060 standard, Class B autoclaves provide comprehensive sterilization across all instrument types, offering legal and safety assurance to both practitioners and patients.

🔹 UV Sterilization Cabinet
As a final step, tools may be stored in a UV sterilization cabinet. Ultraviolet light between 200–280 nm effectively destroys microbial DNA, rendering bacteria and viruses inactive. This chemical-free, non-thermal method enhances long-term sterility during storage.
