Safety and Asepsis
In every area of medicine, risk management is an essential part of healthcare quality.
This is especially true in oral surgery, where strict asepsis and safety protocols are applied to minimize the risk of infections or complications related to surgical procedures.
Dr. Yvan Gaudex, dental surgeon in Chambéry, maintains a rigorous organizational framework to ensure that all interventions are carried out in full compliance with the recommendations of the French health authorities (HAS – Haute Autorité de Santé and DGS – Direction Générale de la Santé).
Infection Control and Prevention
- Confidential medical questionnaire completed before each procedure
- Processing of reusable medical instruments in accordance with official HAS and DGS sterilization standards
- Automated cleaning using a thermo-disinfector
- Class B autoclave sterilization, with specific 134°C “prion cycles”
- Use of single-use medical devices whenever appropriate
- Collection and disposal of infectious medical waste (DASRI) following current health and environmental regulations
- Full traceability of sterilization cycles, implants, and biomaterials
