Infection Prevention and Control in Dental Practice

We can assist Dental practices to establish a protocol that prevents or limits the spread of infection for their patients, their staff and themselves.

We also ensure Dental Practices keep their knowledge and skills up to date with regard to the diagnosis and management of infectious diseases that may be transmitted in the clinical setting, adhere to necessary precautions and take appropriate measures to protect their patients and themselves against infections.
