Technology
Cross infection control prevents the spreading of infectious diseases from staff to patient, patient to staff and from one patient to another. Herne Hill Dental Practice has been designed with separate Centralised Sterilisation Room for decontamination of all instruments and equipment away from the dental surgeries. This means that at Herne Hill Dental we are able to achieve the highest standards of cross infection control that go beyond and exceed that of current standards. As we take cross infection very seriously we have linked our machines to computers so that each step of the sterilization process in monitored, checked and validated.
Our Centralised Sterilisation room is equipped with an ultrasonic bath, a Pico washer disinfector and an Enigma Vacuum Autoclave. All handpieces are pre-sterilised with the latest Excel cleaning machines, as well as using corian worktops with intetrated sinks (most hygienic), there is a constant room ventilation which is the gold standard in dentistry. The water that we use for sterilization in dentistry is produced by reverse osmosis, which means it is pure and sterile.
In addition all water flowing through the dental unit and the ultrasonic scaler is again produced by reverse osmosis.
Patients are welcome to visit our sterilisation room.
