Infection Control

Infection controls and universal precautions protect patients and staff alike. Everyone benefits from rigorous infection control: you the patient, Dr. Majcher, and his dental team. The cornerstone in a good and safe dental practice is the element of trust. You should feel free to discuss this topic with Dr. Majcher and receive a straightforward answer.

Dr. Majcher and the entire team follow procedures recommended by several agencies: the Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the Ohio State Dental Board. These measures include:

  • Disinfectant hand soap & alcohol hand gels
  • Gloves and face masks
  • Chemical disinfection of countertops and all surfaces in patient contact areas
  • Sterilization of all equipment before every use
  • Disposable materials
  • Dental Pure Water & Dental Pure Air Systems
We sterilize all reusable equipment, including dental hand pieces. We use an autoclave, a device that kills bacteria and viruses by steam, heat and pressure. Tests with controls are submitted weekly to an outside monitoring lab. 

Dental Pure Water System and Dental Pure (Compressed) Air System

Making sure that we provide pure water and pure compressed air for our patients is important to us and we have achieved reaching a record-setting level. A company,Dental Pure Water Incorporated has been able to take water quality for dental patients to unprecedented levels of purification ~~99.999999% pure! Dr. Majcher uses Dental Pure Water’s distillation (high heat) water purification system in his office. All water used in our office is 99.999999% pure and securely protected to stay that way with an entire office system of anti-backflow valves that eliminate any cross-contamination. Amongst other areas, this system includes all water delivered to patients at the dental chairs and eliminates the need for any chemical disinfectants to be put into the water used for dental treatment.

Even the compressed air delivered to patients is purified to 99.999999% before it is used during dental treatment procedures. Dirt, oil, bacteria, and mercury vapors are eliminated using the FDA cleared Dental Pure Air System.
