We recommend autoclaves with large internal chambers.
Working within an efficient system, one autoclave can process about 9 cassettes per hour, depending on load.
A standard autoclave load would contain approximately the following:*
(2) - 14 instrument cassettes
(3) - 9 instrument cassettes
(4) - 7 instrument cassettes
(6) - Bags (handpieces,
scaler tips, etc)
* please consult manufacturer’s guidelines.
Sterilization (desergo.com/de...) is the heart of your dental practice. It’s the hub around which your dental office system flows - or doesn’t! You need to maximize dental office efficiency and productivity by treating this area as an integrated dental office design element, not an afterthought.
Please note: Carefully follow all state and local laws and regulations as you consider the strategies and techniques in this video. Documentation of the proper sterilization of instruments and devices is a vital component of a dental practice's infection control guidelines. If you are using a washer to aid in cleaning instruments before they enter the autoclave, it should meet the following 3 requirements; internal water temperature reaches a minimum of 161 degrees F, has a stainless steel interior and has a “heavy duty” or “pots & pans” cycle that lasts over 30 minutes.
