Dental Services Direct can work with dentists to design a sterilisation room. They can suggest the correct specification of equipment required and discuss practical considerations such as installing the equipment, as well as giving good practice advice for the use of the room.

In addition, the team is available for planned maintenance to ensure the room is never out of action. The company offers a wide range of equipment for use in all infection control situations such as the Steelco Dental Washer Disinfectors range. They are an efficient aid for the cleaning and thermal disinfection of all dental instruments and accessories.

You simply take care of loading the instruments and the selection of the cycle, and the rest - pre-wash, washing, thermal disinfection, hot air drying - is taken care of by the machine. At the end of the cycle all the instruments are ready for sterilisation without any further handling.

Another popular range is the Getinge K-series tabletop sterilisers. The standard process (B process) takes 25 minutes and the high-speed process (N process) for unwrapped solid instruments takes as little as nine minutes. The rectangular chamber is optimally designed for maximum load capacity so the K-series can sterilise up to ten trays in just 25 minutes.
