Cross infection control prevents the spreading of infectious diseases from staff to patient, patient to staff and from one patient to another. Pearl Dental has been designed with a separate Centralised Sterilisation Room for decontamination of all instruments and equipment away from the dental surgeries. This means that at Pearl Dental we are able to achieve the highest standards of cross infection control that go beyond and exceed that of current standards. As we take cross infection very seriously we have linked our machines to computers so that each step of the sterilization process is monitored, checked and validated.

Our CSD room is equipped with the latest ultra-sonic bath, a PICO washer disinfector and Eschmann vacuum autoclave. All handpieces are pre-sterilised with the latest W&H Assistina cleaning machines. As well as using stainless steel (most hygienic) for all work surfaces in the sterilisation room, we have constant room ventilation which is the gold standard in dentistry. We have installed a separate stainless steel sink away from the decontamination sink to minimise risk to our staff. The water that we use for sterilisation is produced by reverse osmosis which means that it is pure and sterile.
