Infection Control
All staff at Granville Family Dentistry are trained in infection control. We follow the recommended guidelines of the CDC, ADA, & OSHA. All our dental treatment and services are performed using strict infection control measures to prevent the spread of diseases and infections. These includes, but not limited to:
| Washing hands and wearing disposable gloves and changing them between each patient. | ||
| Wearing face masks to prevent microorganisms form entering or leaving through the mouth and nose. | ||
| Wearing protective eyeglasses. | ||
| Using steam autoclave (Normally at 340 F) as a sterilization method to disinfect and clean the instruments. | ||
| Meticulously wiping down the treatment room before and after every patient with specialized disinfectant solution. | ||
| Using disposable products when available to reduce the chances of cross-contamination. | ||
| Carefully discarding all disposables to minimize human contact. |
Every member of Granville Family Dentistry's professional team is committed to rigorously following the above precautions to ensure your protection from bacterial and viral infections.
