Dental office equipment testing & sterilizer verification

The equipment side of dental compliance

Dental compliance usually means infection control and OSHA. The equipment underneath it — the sterilizer, the chairs, the lights, the compressor — rarely gets a documented check until something fails or an audit asks. BMCA brings the same documentation discipline we run in clinical laboratories to the dental office, at a cadence that fits a practice, not a hospital.

Services for dental practices

• Autoclave and sterilizer verification — chamber temperature and pressure verified against a NIST-traceable reference, cycle timing checked, results documented; complements your weekly biological spore testing rather than replacing it
• NFPA 99 electrical safety testing — dental chairs and delivery units, operatory lights, curing lights, ultrasonic scalers, electrosurgical units, AEDs, imaging equipment
• Refrigerator verification for vaccines, anesthetics and biologics — calibrated thermometer, alarm and log
• Compressor and vacuum checks — pressure and function documented
• Amalgam separator inspection records for the EPA dental rule
• Equipment file in your equipment records — one place for every certificate and service record

Built for DSOs and multi-location groups

Dental service organizations run dozens of locations with identical equipment and a corporate compliance team that wants one report format. BMCA covers all locations under one agreement with a route schedule, and the DSO compliance officer receives every site’s records.
