A Clean and Safe Environment
Frederick Periodontal Associates follows the highest level of sterilization and infection control procedures as mandated by law. All of our staff and doctors receive annual training and updates on infection control, and our Autoclave is monitored weekly to ensure complete compliance with state and federal OSHA standards. All instruments are heat sterilized, or when possible, disposable items are used and discarded after each use. You can have complete confidence that you are treated in an absolutely clean and safe environment.
