•

Testing the dental unit water lines is a critical task in infection prevention and control. But how do you test? How often do you test? And, how do you find the time to test the waterlines? The Divas explore the new Fast Check 15 dental unit waterline test and explain the step-by-step protocol to make this task simple to perform. The Divas are joined by Brian Mergentime, of Solmetex, dentistry's complete provider of water solutions.
