Q: How can we be sure that the dental equipment used for check-ups and treatments are sterile and clean?

A: Our Lubbock dental center has an infection control system that was set up in our infection control room. Here, we sterilize dental equipment and place them in a secure package. Although it’s actually a more thorough and complex process, this procedure makes us and our patients feel secured that dental procedures in our clinic are safe and clean.  When we need to use our equipment, we open it in front of our patients to assure them that it is clean. We always think of the safety of our clients every time we conduct oral check-ups and dental treatments.
