Abstract

The increasing transmission of infections arising from blood-borne Virus such as human immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) hepatitis C Virus (HCV) has resulted in detailed scruting of INFECTION CONTROL procedures among dentists. Specific problems in INFECTION CONTROL procedures in dental clinics vary according to the economic condition of each society. The goal of this study was to investigate INFECTION CONTROL in dental offices of Varamin city. In this observational study, a questionnaire was formulated in three sections. The first and third sections were filled by dentist and dental assistant and the second part was filled by the questionairer. The results have indicated that 79.5% and 90.9% of the dentists used mask and gloves, respectively 64% wore protective eye spectacles. 97.9% of dnetists were vaccinated against HBV, however, 41% of them did not check their antibody levels. The KNOWLEDGE level of dentists about HIV and HBV was considerable. All of dental offices had one dryheat oven and 35% had steam AUTOCLAVEs. None of dentists AUTOCLAVEd dental handpieces but these instruments were just cold disinfected.The findings of this study showed specific difficulties regarding the sterilization of handpieces and using AUTOCLAVE. More over, INFECTION CONTROL education for dentists and their assistants seems to be an urgent need.
