Introducing
Dental Office Infection Control Certification
Dentists and Dental Service Organizations seek certification to demonstrate to their patients and their communities their commitment to quality and safety through high infection prevention and control standards. This certification is unique and allows dental offices to differentiate themselves from their competition.
Dental offices that are certified receive a certification to display in the office, and a badge they can add to: the office website, social media, and printed marketing materials. Certified offices can use the certification as a talking point when they introduce themselves to new and perspective patients...Learn more!

compliance advantage program
The only way to really know if your office meets standards is to look at what you are doing and how you are doing it. Sometimes you are too close to the situation to see potentials problems (opportunities) for what they are.
We provide manuals, forms and our proprietary system of checklists. We supplement this with a series of consultations to periodically, systematically audit the practice for several areas of compliance including corporate (Medicaid) compliance program; OSHA; Infection Control (instrument reprocessing); HIPAA; Radiation Safety; Sedation Safety...
Dental RECORD AUDITING
The feedback from record audits allows dentists and their staff to be proactive in correcting concerns that can have negative consequences including successful medical malpractice claims, state board findings against the dentist, monetary recoupments, payment holds, network exclusion, fraud referrals to government agencies, civil/criminal prosecution.
Though we cannot make any guarantees we have, in many cases, successfully helped our clients resolve, even reverse each of these adverse actions...
Great for the dog park!!
"My two young labs absolutely love this toy. They are rough on toys, so we have to work with them on not trying to destroy a toy the moment it is given to them.
This "flying squirrel" immediately became and continues to be a high value toy, so it is put up and out of the way when not being played with. Lightweight and flexible, but even so, the toy is really durable.”
