For the safety and well being of our patients, we at Dr.Raj Krishnan’s Clinic take utmost care about hygiene and sterilization.
Most of the items used are disposable. The extraction and various other Instruments are sterilized using Digital Auto Clave, Hot Air Sterilizer, and Glass Bead Sterilizer.
Patients are provided with separate set of fully sterilized instrument. Patients are particularly asked to rinse their mouth with mouthwash containing Chlorhexidine-glauconate, which has bactericidal effect. This helps in reducing the bacterial count, before the treatment
