[QUOTE="lcmlabforum, post: 313875, member: 3238"] Just FYI. Offices should disinfect any parts that they receive as long as they have either come from clinic, or going into patient after we receive. My protocol is to show the patient the parts so they understand what an abutment is and the crown is, then it goes straight into Cavicide while we are getting ready. Any implant impressions are bleached by soaking screws in bleach, and a micro-brush dipped into bleach to clean the impression copings. The only issue I had so far would be those Aluminum ones for traditional Straumann implant level open tray impressions (example the WN ones). All others I have used so far are Titanium or Ti Alloy that have no reaction to bleach. After that, we rinse the bleach out thoroughly before pouring up impressions. Foam in boxes are Cavicide sprayed if we need to give to patients for some reason (like old denture tooth they brought in, unwanted broken parts, etc.). Any implant parts or crowns that needs to go back to lab should be autoclaved - temp won't affect ceramics. Moisture would be a issue if old crowns that need to add contacts, so do check what you need case by case. Dentures etc also go into Cavicide before rinse when pt arrives. Do tell staff to handle Cavicide carefully - eye protection, skin protection, avoid aerosol. Hope that helps, LCM [/QUOTE]
