Cleaning and/or disinfecting irregular surfaces in dental operatories is difficult at best. Decontamination of keyboards and computer mice have particularly been an issue, as the electronics are susceptible to water and disinfectant solutions. Low cost - washable computer devices have recently become available. Several models are even dishwasher safe. We recommend that you reexamine your cleaning protocols and consider washable computer input devices in an effort to reduce cross-contamination.
