Our
Office has become the
'the place to be' for
the orthodontic treatment of many of the kids
and teens in the Chino Valley area of
Southern California. One look at the relaxed
and pleasant ocean and surfing themed surroundings
and you'll see why. Our
adult patients agree
too! |

new EYE TOY which is a great
hit! Overhead a baby dolphin chases flying fish.

Sterilization
and Cleanliness Standards |
|
|
|
"We
practice the highest level of sterilization and
cleanliness procedures found in modern orthodontic
offices today."
This is a routine part of our work. To inform
you and make you feel comfortable about our procedures
in this area some of these procedures are listed
below:
|
| |
- We
use dry heat sterilizers for all our hand pliers
and a steam autoclave for sterilization of the
dental handpieces. Items which cannot withstand
the heat are cold sterilized.
- All
our sterilizer machines are monitored for sterilization
effectiveness with weekly spore tests, that
are sent to UCLA.
- As
a second check of sterilization effectiveness,
all instruments are bagged with an indicator
strip which tests for effective sterilization
of each bag.
- Cleaned
instruments are kept in closed cabinets after
sterilization.
- We
use Blue (sterilized) and Red (contaminated)
lighted cabinets to identify sterilized and
unsterilized areas of the sterilization room
- particularly useful when fill-in or temporary
staff help at the office.
- The
water supply lines used at the dental chairs
are purged and cleaned daily and are completely
separate from the city water supply. This prevents
biofilm accumulation in the water lines.
- We
make extensive use of plastic barriers at the
dental chairs to aid in effective cleaning of
the chairs.
- Our
staff is regularly trained and retrained in
infection control - in fact we do this yearly
in the Spring. Regulations require this every
two years. New employees that work in the back
office are trained in sterilization immediately,
if they have not come from a dental training
program where this was taught.
- We
have a professional cleaning service do deep
cleaning of the office each weekend. Our sterilization
and cleaning person, Tarin, does the daily cleaning
chores with the assistance of the other staff
members and Dr. Feather.
