title: Infection control of in-office dental laboratories.
abstract: The importance of observing a sound infection control program in the dental laboratory is clear. Personnel should not be expected to work in an unsafe environment. Many of the reasons for ignoring proper disinfection control procedures are unfounded. Infection control procedures do not adversely affect either laboratory personnel or dental prostheses when carefully executed.
