Dentaqua allows dental practices to produce their own low-cost disinfectant which can be applied in several areas of the clinic including: surface disinfection, environmental fogging, dental impression disinfection and dental waterline disinfection. The system eliminates the need for traditional chemical disinfectants and single-use plastic wipes.
The device is designed and manufactured in Ireland, and available throughout the US via Dentaqua’s network of sales representatives.
With each Dentaqua system, dentists receive a complimentary handheld ‘fogger’, enabling the quick disinfection of surgeries in between patient visits.
Dentists also receive high-quality, re-usable spray bottles, which when filled with Dentaqua disinfectant, can be used in combination with more sustainable paper towels to eliminate the purchasing of costly and environmentally unsustainable single-use wipes.
The plug-and-play Dentaqua device has ‘one touch’ operation that fills dental water bottles for continuous dental waterline disinfection. Separately, at the touch of a button, the system produces a disinfectant solution for use in a range of applications.
Dentaqua also provides a data trail on the use of the system. This allows dental practices to clearly evidence disinfection production and use.
Dentists can eliminate procurement hassle and stock shortages by producing their own disinfectant from the device.
Benefits of the Dentaqua DW-8 system include:
• Generate your own low-cost disinfectant using just water and a quality controlled salt electrolyte – all natural so you don’t have to worry about chemical exposure.
• Savings of $1000 per individual operatory annually.
• Dentaqua-produced water eliminates waterline biofilm, resulting in ultra-clean dental water and reducing risks associated with dental aerosols.
• App-based automatic record-keeping minimizes the need for manual record keeping
and auto-orders consumable salt so you never run out.
• Proven non-corrosive to dental equipment in long term clinical settings.
• Independently studied and proven to be non-toxic to human epithelial cells and it does not affect composite bond strength
“The new technology has proveen very successful with dentists with the equivalent of 3,000+ operatories now using the technology. The positive feedback from customers has been huge” said Dentaqua, Inc. President Ed O’Reilly. “Dentist and dental staff love the system. The fact that it eliminates single-use wipes and the fact that you don’t have to worry about purchasing and monitoring chemicals is a real benefit. You simply produce your own highly-effective, eco-friendly disinfectant, as needed, at the touch of a button”
“The environmental benefit of eliminating large volumes of single use plastic wipes going to landfill is a very attractive proposition for most dentists. It enables dental practices to legitimately market their eco-friendly credentials to their patients” O’Reilly added.
Studies looking into the ability of antimicrobial-surface wipes to prevent the spread of infections such as MRSA found that current protocols utilized by hospital staff have the potential to spread pathogens. This is often due to their incorrect use and the ineffectiveness of many wipes from antimicrobial standpoint.
Independent studies have proven that Dentaqua’s Ecasol disinfectant destroys non-enveloped virus - which are more difficult to kill than Coronavirus - in less than 1 minute contact time.
There are a number of products on the market that use salt to generate hypochlorous acid. Most are extremely inefficient at converting salt, resulting is high levels of residual chloride in the hypochlorous acid solution. This results in corrosion of dental chair components, equipment and materials.
Dentaqua is non-corrosive to dental equipment. Uniquely, its patented device produces solutions with virtually no residual salt, making it an ideal solution to disinfect high-value dental equipment.
