Episode Synopsis

In this episode the Divas discuss everything dental teams need to know about dental burs, diamonds, finishing burs, endo files, and implant files.  The most import question to be answered is whether those items can or cannot be reused, after they are cleaned and sterilized, or are they single use items.   The FDA has a lot to say about this in instructions for use and labeling.   Learn what it all means.Resources:CDC Summary of Infection Prevention Control in Dental Settings https://www.cdc.gov/dental-infection-control/hcp/index.htmlCDC Best Practices in Dental Infection Prevention and Control  https://www.cdc.gov/dental-infection-control/hcp/dental-ipc-faqs/index.htmlFDA - Overview of Medical Device Classification and Reclassification  https://www.fda.gov/about-fda/cdrh-transparency/overview-medical-device-classification-and-reclassificationFDA Title 21 Subchapter H - Medical Devices - Part 801 Labeling  https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfCFR/CFRSearch.cfm?CFRPart=801FDA Labeling Symbols  https://www.bsigroup.com/globalassets/meddev/localfiles/it-it/webinars/bsi-md-symbols-and-information-to-be-provided-by-the-manufacturer-webinar.pdf https://www.thecompliancedivas.com
