Yes! In fact we abide by the same protocol as hospitals by using tuberculocidal disinfection solutions for surface cleaning, so we actually leave the area cleaner than when we arrived! We use medical autoclaves to sterilize our instruments and our autoclaves follow the CDC requirement of weekly spore testing to ensure that the sterilizers are working at 100%. Some dental offices do in-house testing, but Smiles by Delivery takes it one step further to protect our patients. We choose to have our autoclaves checked weekly by a third party infection control company. If you are worried about saliva a splatter, again, we have our unit in a controlled setting and use our hospital grade cleaners….so now think about all the times residents and neighbors are coughing and sneezing….and not cleaning up after they disperse germs!
