Hygiene

Hygiene is a top priority in our practice in Mannheim, because even as an orthodontist it is important to avoid infections in the practice. We therefore do more for the cleanliness and safety of our patients than just comply with the legal regulations.

At least one member of staff has an additional qualification as a sterile goods officer, which is actually only required in clinics.

Of course, we only use the most modern equipment for the reprocessing and sterilisation of our instruments. Even for the critical reprocessing of contra-angles, we have a high-tech device, the DAC, which ensures hygiene and care at the same time.

Germ-free Water in our Practice

We have done something about a major hygienic weak point – the water at the dentist’s chairs. In our orthodontic practice, this water is lightly chlorinated, just like a waterworks or swimming pool does. The chlorine is added in exact doses and constantly monitored so that we can guarantee germ-free water.

For this we work together with the company BLUE SAFETY, which offers the best concept for water hygiene in dental practices (bluesafety.com). We as orthodontists are convinced that drinking water chlorination will be mandatory in dental practices in a few years.

Particularly important at the moment with the Corona crisis: chlorination also helps against viruses. Thanks to the constant care we have received a certificate for controlled water hygiene from BLUE SAFETY.
