Hand hygiene

Quality & safety
Infection control is not one single action. It is a coordinated set of precautions used before, during and after every patient visit. Dental Nation applies standard precautions to protect patients, visitors and team members.
The same core infection-prevention principles apply regardless of a patient's age, health history or reason for visiting. Additional precautions may be used when a clinical assessment identifies a specific need.
