Surgical Draping
An increase in the number of surgical procedures performed within private dental practices has resulted in an increased demand for effective surgical aseptic techniques. Creating and maintaining a sterile field is an essential component of the aseptic technique and this course explores these principles.
This hands-on course aims to assist the practitioner and/or assistant to master the skills required to ensure an aseptic environment and to follow set surgical protocols.

Topics include:
- Surgical set-up
- Clean vs Sterile
- Correct hand scrubbing techniques
- Optimal sterilization and wrapping of surgical instruments

- Sharps and biological waste control
Learning objectives:
- Implementing sterile procedures in individual practices
