Show Notes
What if the water flowing through your dental unit is quietly building a hidden community of bacteria that standard routines are not fully controlling? In this episode, Kevin Henry talks with Chanda Chatham about what really happens inside dental waterlines and why consistency matters more than most practices realize. They break down how biofilm forms, how bacteria attach to particles in water, and why fluctuations in treatment can allow contamination to return. The conversation highlights how silver ion technology works at a continuous level to disrupt bacteria by damaging cell walls, helping prevent buildup before it becomes a larger problem. They also explain the importance of starting with clean lines, using EPA registered products, and regularly testing water quality to verify safety. From simple shock treatments to year round maintenance strategies, this discussion focuses on practical ways dental teams can reduce risk, simplify routines, and maintain safe water for patients without adding complexity to their workflow.
