From your treatment rooms to your reception area, a sparkling clean dental office is an absolute must for most patients. Your dental office is a medical setting, so it needs a thorough cleaning and extra care to keep your patients and your staff safe. A professional cleaning service is an important piece of your busy, thriving dental practice. Highly trained cleaning professionals will help keep your dental office safe and sparkling. 

Here’s why you need professional cleaning for your dental office.

To help you prevent cross-contamination

A professional cleaning service can help protect your patients and staff from cross-contamination. Highly trained cleaning staff know how to carefully sanitize and disinfect your dental equipment, and the surfaces in your treatment rooms, bathrooms and reception area. 

 

Trained cleaning professionals have specific processes and checklists that ensure areas that are often overlooked are cleaned with care, such as the tops of cabinets or hidden corners. This is important for the health and safety of your staff and patients because bacteria particles can mix and travel with the dust that collects in these areas. 

 

To ensure each area of your dental office is cleaned, sanitized or disinfected properly

 

Professional cleaners understand that cleaning, sanitizing and disinfecting each play an important role in keeping your dental office safe from the spread of bacteria or viruses. 

 

It’s important to clean surfaces before sanitizing or disinfecting them. Cleaning beforehand removes surface-level debris, making sanitizers and disinfectants more effective. 

 

Sanitizing kills bacteria and may be good for some areas of your practice, but some areas and need disinfecting. For example, disinfectants are especially important for dental equipment and high-touch areas in your dental office.

To give your high-touch surfaces extra attention

There are many high-touch surfaces in your dental office, including areas like countertops, door handles, tables, drawer handles, patient chairs, X-ray switches and so on. 

 

Although your staff members should be wiping down these surfaces regularly throughout the day, a professional cleaner can make sure these areas are thoroughly disinfected—without missing a spot—to help you further reduce the spread of viruses or bacteria in your practice.

 

To help you make a great impression with your customers 

 

A neat and tidy reception area with clean carpets and clear surfaces shows care and professionalism, which is extremely important for a positive customer experience. Clean and well-stocked bathrooms are also imperative to creating an excellent experience for your customers. A professional cleaning service will help you stay on top of these areas, making sure they are always clean and well-maintained. 

 

Hiring a professional cleaning service means you have highly trained staff and the right cleaning products and equipment helping you keep your dental office clean, disinfected and safe.
