Michelle Strange, MSDH, RDH, CDIPC: “The DUWL Protocol for Success”
Thursday, February 19th, 10AM, 10:30AM, 11AM, 11:30AM
Achieving safe water from dental unit waterlines (DUWL) requires more than random maintenance; it requires a disciplined, repeatable strategy. Sterisil’s SAFEWater Solution is a proven Test, Shock, and Maintain protocol, designed to ensure your practice meets or exceeds CDC and EPA standards for water quality. Learn why Testing is the critical first step in any protocol—identifying hidden biofilm loads before they lead to failure. By integrating Sterisil’s SAFEWater Solution, your DUWL management workflow will be simplified with a unified system that protects patients, and ensures long-term clinical success
Sherrie Busby, EDDA, CDSO, CDIPC: “DUWL Management is a Team Sport”
Thursday, February 19th, 1PM, 1:30PM, 2PM, 2:30PM
Maintaining compliant dental unit waterlines (DUWL) is a team effort, not a single person’s task. Learn how to build a culture of compliance by implementing an organizational strategy for Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). Appointing an Infection Control (IC) Coordinator to lead the charge and integrating Sterisil’s SAFEWater Solution removes guesswork and ensures consistency across the entire clinical team. Learn the blueprint for a collaborative, “no-fail” water safety culture.
Angela Simmons, CDA, CDIPC, CHPC, CCSA: “The Silver Lining: Simplifying DSO Dental Unit Waterline Workflow”
Friday, February 20th, 10AM, 10:30AM, 11AM, 11:30AM
Inconsistent water management across multiple practice locations poses a significant risk to compliance and production. This course provides Dental Support Organizations (DSOs) with a roadmap to unify their protocols using Sterisil’s SAFEWater Solution. Reduce manual steps with silver-ion technology that eliminates the need for daily tablets or complex maintenance. Empower Compliance Officers with a streamlined, compatible product suite that saves time and guarantees reliable results. Sterisil makes it simple.
Lori Serna-Pate RDH, MEd, CDIPC “Passing Dental Unit Waterline Inspection: What You Need to Know”
Friday, February 20th, 1:00PM, 1:30PM, 2:00PM, 2:30PM
Navigating a dental board inspection can be a high-stress experience, particularly as dental unit water line (DUWL) regulations become more stringent in 2026. Get a rare “behind-the-scenes” look at the inspection process, led an experienced dental inspector. Learn what inspectors specifically look for when evaluating water quality compliance and where most offices fail.
Transition from “hoping you pass” to “knowing you pass” by learning how to implement Sterisil’s SAFEWater Solution, —a streamlined approach designed to make complex monitoring simple and repeatable for successful inspections.
