With the cold and flu season upon us and heightened awareness due to the H1N1 virus we thought this would be a great time to inform you of our sterilization procedures.

We have very stringent procedures for sterilization to protect both our patients and our staff. Everything that is touched is sterilized in between patients. This even includes things such as pens, drawer handles, the overhead light, the computer keyboard and mouse. Our keyboards have a protective covering that makes them much easier to sterilize between patients. All of our sterilization procedures, from wipe down medical grade disinfectant to steamed autoclave for our instruments are approved and recommended by The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and are compliant with Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA).

Rest assured that at Door Creek Dental we are taking all the necessary steps to make sure that your health is protected when you are in our office.
