Practical Infection Control in the Dental Office
This file is the latest updated dental infection control kit that answers many questions concerning infection control in a dental setting, including sterilization, barrier protection, and management of occupational exposures to bloodborne pathogens. The primary reference is a self-instructional manual with exercises on proper infection control practices. It is intended for use by dentists to train their office staff in proper infection control practices, although the message is applicable to all. This training meets OSHA requirements for such training. Margaret I. Scarlett, D.M.D., formerly with the Division of Oral Health, National Center for Prevention Services, served as course developer. (Revised 1993.)
