In this interview, Stan Goff, senior managing editor of Dentistry Today, speaks with Angela Simmons, founder of Simmons Safe, about the importance of dental unit waterline safety and effective infection control practices. They discuss the challenges dental practices face in maintaining compliance, the importance of testing, shocking, and maintaining dental unit waterlines, and how solutions from Solmetex can help simplify the process.
The conversation highlights the Sterisil® SAFEWater Solution, including the Sterisil® Straw, FASTCheck15™, Citrisil™ Shock, and Sterisil® R2A with FASTRead™.
