The Critical Role of Safe Dental Unit Waterlines in the Era of COVID-19

Dental unit waterlines have been shown to harbor a variety of microorganisms, and the COVID-19 pandemic has made waterline safety a centerpiece of interim guidance from a variety of organizations. Guidance from the CDC, ADA, and ADHA states that dental unit waterlines should be shocked and tested. Today, only half of practices are shocking, only 10% are testing, and beyond that, over 30% of treated waterlines fail their tests. Join Amanda Hill, RDH, and Dr. Gary Severance for a review of dental unit waterline safety, current guidelines related to waterline cleanliness, and tools and products available that support cleaning and testing waterlines. This webinar is sponsored by ProEdge Dental. For more COVID-19 resources: https://www.henryschein.com/COVID19ResourceCenter Rely on Us.
