Dental instruments sterilization equipment

To organize dental office or clinic efficient operation, it is necessary to equip it with all kinds of devices, instruments, and facilities. A dentist has to conduct examinations, medical manipulations, and surgical interventions, as well as take care of proper sterility.

Disinfection is a complex of special measures to eliminate pathogenic viruses and microorganisms. Disinfection measures are taken to the whole dental office. However, special attention is paid to the work area. Dental operating instruments sterilization processing is of crucial importance. To achieve a due level of sterility, special sterilization equipment is used.

Sterilization features and types

Before you buy a dental instruments sterilizer, it is necessary to learn about types of equipment. Nowadays, there are two ways of sterilization:

  • physical methods;
  • chemical method.

The latter is considered to be an auxiliary method in dentistry, since it is used only when sterilization by physical methods is not possible (for example, when instruments are made of special materials and alloys).

Physical sterilization can be conducted using:

  1. Air. Sterilization in air sterilizers is performed at a temperature of 180o C for an hour or at 160o C for 150 minutes.
  2.  Steam. In steam sterilizers, instruments are processed during just 20 minutes at a temperature of 132o C, or 45 minutes at 120o C.
  3.  Heated balls. In this case, special glasperlen devices are used in dentistry. They are designed to sterilize small dental instruments.

How to choose sterilization equipment the right way

To facilitate the dentist’s and other medical staff’s work, it is necessary to choose a sterilization device the right way. When buying a sterilizer, the following features are of great importance:

  • disinfecting effect level;
  • processing time;
  • equipment cleaning method;
  • number of pallets for sterilization (to separate sets from different dental offices);
  • automatic controls availability;
  • sterilization compartment volume (for a private dental office, a 10 to 12 liters compartment will be sufficient, but for a clinic, it is worth buying a 15 liters model or larger).

When purchasing dental equipment for a dental office, we recommend you to take into account services your health institution provides. Do not forget about volumes, the number of instruments, and materials needing regular sterilization treatment either.
