The Aquasept Solution to Dental Unit Contamination

MMWR Report:

“Conventional dental units cannot reliably deliver sterile water even when equipped with independent water reservoirs because the water-bearing pathway cannot be reliably sterilized. Delivery of sterile water or other solutions can only be achieved by using single-use disposable or sterilizable tubing.”

(MMWR Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, Page 29, December 2003).

These CDC Guidelines specifically state that sterile solutions should be used as a coolant/irrigation in the performance of oral surgery procedures.
