Hi, welcome to module C, Epidemiology and risk of infections in dental settings. * There are three main objectives in Module C: Discuss the infectious process through a review of the chain of infection Review methods for controlling transmission of infections in dental settings Describe the steps for detecting and controlling outbreaks. * * During the provision of dental treatment, both patients and dental health care personnel can be exposed to pathogens through contact with blood, oral and respiratory secretions, and contaminated equipment. Following recommended infection control procedures can prevent transmission of infectious organisms among patients and dental health care personnel. This is a diagram of the chain of infection. Notice that there are six links in the chain. In order for infections to spread, all of the links in the chain must be connected. By disrupting one or more of the links in the chain, you prevent the spread, or transmission, of infection. * The first l
