At Valley View Dental, we go above and beyond to protect your health. Each week, we perform a spore test (biological indicator test) — the most reliable way to ensure our sterilizer (autoclave) is working perfectly. 🦷
💡 What is a Spore Test?
A spore test uses harmless but highly resistant bacterial spores to check whether the sterilization process can destroy even the toughest microorganisms. If the test passes, it confirms that all instruments are safe and fully sterilized before being used on patients.
Why it matters:
🦷 Ensures all instruments are 100% sterile and safe
🦷 Confirms that our autoclave is operating at the correct temperature, pressure, and time
🦷 Meets CDC and state dental board requirements for infection control
🦷 Protects both our patients and our team from potential cross-contamination
📆 Frequency: Done weekly as required by CDC and state dental board standards.
