2024 OSAP Annual Conference - What Does Infection Prevention and Control Cost a Dental Practice? (On-Demand)

This program takes a deep dive into the true cost of infection prevention and control (IPC) in dentistry. A comprehensive analysis has been conducted to estimate all the aspects of IPC protocols, from staff time, training costs, disposables, reprocessing of reusable items to equipment, sterilizer monitoring, waterline testing and maintenance and more. Participants will come away with a better understanding of the investment that dental practices make in patient and employee safety.
