Bacterial contamination of dental unit water lines is a growing liability concern for all dental offices.

This CE webinar, presented by Compliance Training Partners, highlights Centers for Disease control guidelines for dental unit water and provides solutions for maintaining a safe and healthy environment for both patients and staff. The webinar also reviews proper testing protocol and describes how to correct a dental unit water system that contains unacceptable levels of bacteria.

Improving dental practice profitability rarely comes down to a single piece of equipment. It depends on how well the systems in a practice work together, from reliable utility equipment to efficient operatories and tools that stay in service. In most practices, profitability is closely tied to four operational factors: equipment uptime, operatory efficiency, maintenance speed, and equipment longevity. Upon completion of this CE webinar, the student will be better positioned to maintain consistent patient flow and protect their production schedules.
