title: [Infection control procedures used in dental offices in Belo Horizonte].
abstract: Survey data from 300 randomly selected private dental practitioners working in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, were used to evaluate the infection control procedures routinely practiced here. The function of this report might be to alert the teaching team from Dental Schools and the dentists to the problems that potentially contribute to the transmission of infectious disease as a first step for additional specific recommendations to an effective and safe infection controL program that we intend to discuss later.
