In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, the term \u201ctouchless\u201d or \u201ctouch-free\u201d has been used across multiple industries. Businesses are attempting to make their operations safer, and encouraging customers to take advantage of these measures to resume their purchasing habits.<\/p>\n
Does touch-free work for dentistry though? While there are aspects of your profession that must always occur in-person, incorporating touchless communication systems at your dental practice will offer you a great benefit:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It is Safer For Everyone<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Safety is now the first thing on patients\u2019 minds when they consider resuming their day-to-day activities, like scheduling dental appointments. However, your expertise gives you an edge–safety has always been your #1 concern as a dentist, and by using your knowledge of PPE and best infectious disease practices, you can reduce the risk for you, your staff, and patients.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n A safer reception desk and waiting area<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 1. Simplified Scheduling and online booking<\/p>\n Typically, scheduling is handled through a combination of in-person visits and phone calls, creating a jumble of notes and paperwork that your staff has to manually input and then carefully follow up on. Moving to a touch-free scheduling system helps to digitize much of this work.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 2. Patients Prefer Online Booking<\/p>\n Many business owners are reluctant to automate or digitize their operations, fearing that customers will respond negatively to the \u201cartificial\u201d quality of those systems. But when it comes to scheduling appointments, they couldn\u2019t be further off the mark: nearly 70% OF CONSUMERS prefer to book appointments online, and 93.9% say they\u2019re more likely to choose a business if online booking is offered. Providing an online booking system makes you more appealing to customers, period.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Some of the touchfree inventions you must consider installing in your dental practice:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Sensor Light Switches<\/p>\n Touchless Faucets<\/p>\n Touchless Soap Dispensers<\/p>\n Touchless Paper Towel Dispensers<\/p>\n Touchless Waste Receptacles<\/p>\n Automatic Doors<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n A safer treatment room:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Now we have talked about touch-free object in the dental office to reduce contamination:<\/p>\n What about one of the most touched objects in your dental practice: the dental treatment unit?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a9 2019 MEDIArt | Photographie; Architekturaufnahmen, Innenarchitektur, Interieur, Ausstattung, Zahnarzt, Ordination Dr. Immler Robert<\/p><\/div>\n <\/p>\n A dental chair is the centrepiece of every dental practice. It is the focal point of your daily work from which you treat and consult your patients. But it is also one of the most touched objects by patients and dental professionals in your practice.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n How to avoid contagion? How to keep your dental unit clean?<\/p>\n First of all, an intensive cleaning routine is necessary.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n After each treatment:<\/p>\n Every morning:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Every evening:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Each week or after a long downtime:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n As needed:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n You can also opt to automate lots of settings and procedures by using the technology that your dental unit posesses.<\/p>\n The Ancar Series 3<\/a> and Series 5<\/a> dental units for example, are equipped with a touch screen that is easy to clean and with the technology to programm all needed settings of instruments for each user. That means less touching, less unnecesary movements and less time wasted. The smooth and seemless design of the unit makes it easy to clean. As it is made out of aluminium and not plastic, desinfection is easier to do and the unit will still look as white and shiny after decades of use.<\/p>\n For more information about the Ancar dental units, visit ancar-dental.com\/<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n A touchless and clean dental practice guide Motion-Sensor Activations, No-Touch, Touch-Free, Touchless all refers to devices and apparatus that activates automatically once it detects motion\/movements within the activation zones.
