We at Gulati Dental Clinic, follow all the sterilization and disinfection procedures required for infection control. These are used for each and every patient to prevent the transmission of the dreaded HIV/AIDS virus, Hepatitis virus and other infectious diseases. All our staff involved in patient care share a very concerned attitude in this regard. We follow a stringent Four- tier sterilization process for our instruments. Needless to say , disposables like needles, syringes, glasses, etc. are all discarded after being used once. Appropriate protective garb such as disposable gloves and masks are used. Infection control is one of our utmost priorities.

The Four steps sterilization protocol used for our instruments.

Step One : All the instruments are scrubbed with spirit swabs to remove any attached debris.
Step Two: The instruments are then immersed in 5% korsolex sterilizing solution for 45 minutes for standard disinfection.
