Contamination of dental unit waterlines: assessment of three continuous water disinfection systems

OBJECTIVES: To assess the efficacy of three continuous water disinfection systems for dental units under real conditions of dental care. DESIGN AND SETTINGS: A prospective study carried out from 45 days to 20 months on the water microbial quality of the dental units is benefited from three different...

description OBJECTIVES: To assess the efficacy of three continuous water disinfection systems for dental units under real conditions of dental care. DESIGN AND SETTINGS: A prospective study carried out from 45 days to 20 months on the water microbial quality of the dental units is benefited from three different systems: two chemical treatment systems (IGN EVO/Calbenium/IGN Cartridge and Sterispray) and one physical treatment system (BacTerminator). Studied items were six dental units of the Dental Medicine and Oral Surgery Center within the University Hospital of Strasbourg (HUS), France. RESULTS AND DISUCUSSION: The IGN EVO/Calbenium/IGN Cartridge and Sterispray systems showed an immediate and long-term efficacy on contaminated dental unit waterlines. However, the first system offers ergonomic advantages (automatic system, action on the water from the water supply network). The BacTerminator system took longer to be effective and was less effective than the other two.
