Product news Instant protein detection kit
Alkapharm’s Protein Testing Kit has been scientifically developed to instantly help determine and monitor the effectiveness of the day-to-day cleaning/disinfection procedures within the dental practice.
Protein present upon any hard surface would suggest that potentially harmful bacteria may also be present. In the case of equipment or clinical surface previously considered as clean, then identifying the presence of protein will indicate action is required and also help identify that
only detergent/disinfectant products that will achieve high levels of decontamination will be in use within the practice.
Each kit, costing just £39.95, allows for 20 individual tests to be carried out, each test taking just minutes to identify protein levels as low as 20ppm on any surface area to include: surgical/medical/dental instruments; washer disinfectors, ultrasonic cleaners, autoclaves; hard surface areas, medical furniture and equipment etc.

Getting patients motivated
National Smile Month is the ideal time to go the extra mile to encourage patients to take greater care of their oral health between appointments. A British Dental Health Foundation (BDHF),
campaign saw the profession, schools and workplaces, as well as retail outlets combine to help raise awareness.
Oral-B, a platinum sponsor of the campaign, has produced several thousand ‘Smile Packs’ containing 150 x Pro-Expert
toothpaste samples and 150 x floss sachets. The pack also contains six full-sized tubes of toothpaste for the dental team. Smile Packs can be requested at dentalcare.

By giving out samples along with oral health guidance and instruction, you will help the BDHF communicate their three key messages – brush your teeth for two minutes twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste; cut down on how often you have sugary foods and drinks and visit your dentist regularly.
