2. Equipment of the practitioner and the assistant

In order to increase the health safety of the patient, the dentist and the assistance, we adapted our personal protective equipment (PPE): 

• Body protection

  • cap

  • over-scrub

  • Covid-19: gown 

• Eye protection: protective glasses ==> Covid-19: additional wearing of a visor 

• Respiratory protection: surgical mask ==> Covid-19: FFP2/N95 mask 

• Hand protection: gloves

3. Reminder of cabinet asepsis, sterilization and instrument traceability measures

Our firm has always placed emphasis on the asepsis of the premises and the sterilization of the equipment as well as its traceability:

• the sterilization of any instrument used in the mouth (probe, mirror...) according to a strict protocol.

• cleaning and disinfection of medical devices between patients

• as part of the Covid-19 measures, the treatment room will be ventilated by opening the windows after each patient

• external and internal disinfection of rotating equipment (turbines, etc.) after each use

• the sorting and disposal of healthcare waste with infectious risks

• we will apply the aseptic procedure from the operating room to the common care cabin with the use of a dedicated device allowing the spraying of a bio-degradable disinfectant. In addition, all door handles are regularly disinfected as well as the seats in the waiting room.

Our traceability procedure allows us to track the bag of sterilized instruments used for each patient using a barcode label. These labels are scanned and archived in the patient's file and allow access to the sterilization and usage history at any time.
