Here in Alberta, infection prevention and control in dentistry is governed by specific guidelines. Most of these guidelines are common sense. As a rule, anything a dentist uses in the mouth is sterilised or single-use disposable.

Our new clinic was inspected by the Alberta Dental Association & College shortly after opening. We also recently arranged to have an infection control consultant review our clinic protocols.
