Sterilization and infection control

Our office is very concerned, as you are, about infection control. Wherever possible we use disposable supplies. Non-disposable supplies are scrubbed, bagged and sterilized in our state of the art autoclave. For your protection, we have the latest hospital grade sterilization equipment and techniques, including "solid-surface" counter tops which are impervious to any stains, bacteria, and viruses.

We have installed a TriangleTM Sterilization Center". The TriangleTM is a self contained unit that systematizes and facilitates the sterilization of instruments and equipment. It features solid surface countertops, an ultrasonic cleaner, a hospital grade sterilizer, and an area for "cold sterile" solutions.

These are just some of the precautions we take for our patient’s protection. If you have any specific questions related to these topics simply click on the e-mail icon, Dr Martz will be happy to answer any of your questions.
