FAQs
What’s the difference between disposable and reusable instruments?
Disposable instruments save sterilization time and reduce cross-contamination risks. Reusable ones are more cost-effective long-term when sterilized properly.
How should reusable instruments be sterilized?
Clean them immediately after use, then run through an ultrasonic cleaner before autoclaving. Always follow manufacturer instructions.
How often should instruments be replaced?
Replace instruments when they show signs of wear, dullness, or corrosion to maintain patient safety and procedural effectiveness.
