    This just looks like a hygiene operatory. In my operatory, there are cabinets and drawers behind the dental chair, where I keep my vitals machine and monitoring leads, IV bags, IV tubing, catheter start kits, airway supplies, drugs, ventilator circuits, and the ventilator and IV pumps themselves are always plugged in.

      @@Redh3adElizabeth Basically the only thing we can have stored in our ops are disposables (gloves, headrest covers, masks, prophy cups, etc.), and those things have to be kept in a sealed bin inside the drawers/cupboards, so if we were to open a cupboard the aerosols wouldn’t contaminate everything. We can’t keep things like probes or X-ray holders in there (and those holders would have to be individually wrapped and sterilized)

  • @markcollins6578
    @markcollins6578 3 роки тому

    nice and smart but a problem - 1 bin and through the worktop. There should always be 2 bins - 1 for normal waste and 1 for clinical as the clinical waste has to be disposed of by a licensed disposer. If placing something into the bin through the worktop it could hit the rim or side and spread along the worktop hence the bin should be isolated - wipe down is not always 100% effective. Also not seen any certificates yet - maybe different where she is but in England the dentists like to remind their patients of their qualifications

    • @TeethTalk
      @TeethTalk  3 роки тому +1

      we have two bins :) we have to open the cabinet to get to the hazardous waste. also - I removed our licenses from the walls for this video so viewers won't see our personal information. hope this helps! stay well :)

    so.... when you assemble your room trays- are you having to go through 50 drawers to get all the pieces you need? or is there a spot where you have all pieces in a small area for a variety of tray types?

    I don't know why I'm watching this but it's funny... I'm not in the field of Medicine at all but I'm way to obsessed with clean teeth, I hate cavity, gum diseases or bad breath at all, thank God I have amazing dentist who takes care of everything or give me some tips & tricks that he has in the pocket 😉
    Every single day 2/day 3 min brushing, 2/day mouth rinsing w mouthwash Anticavity & Antiseptic than after a long day of eat food, drinking all of those juices I do floss 1/day at night...
    never asked my dentist if this is a 100% correct that I do to keep my teeth clean...
    #TeethTalkGirl You have a question from Electrical Engineer am I missing something or is it right/wrong way??? Also my dentist told me that I have a perfect hygiene of my teeth 😉😁

      Great question! I have an updated "bad breath prevention" video coming up soon - where I talk about how using a tongue scraper is usually the best option (such as "Orabrush") but if you do not have a tongue scraper - a toothbrush is better than nothing! Hope this helps!
