Infection Control

Cariboo Dental Clinic in Williams Lake Cares about Your Safety!

Your safety is our main priority at Cariboo Dental Clinic in Williams Lake. Please discuss infection control with one of our dentists to receive a straightforward answer and better understand what measures we take to ensure your safety.



Our dental team follows procedures recommended by the College of Dental Surgeon of British Columbia. These measures include:

  • Disinfectant hand soap
  • Gloves and face masks
  • Chemical disinfection of countertops and surfaces
  • Sterilization of all equipment before every use
  • Disposable materials

We sterilize all reusable equipment, including dental hand pieces. We use an autoclave, a device that kills bacteria and viruses by steam, heat and pressure.


The best defense against disease is information. The more you know, the better equipped you are to make wise decisions about your health care. The more you know about our daily procedures and policies, the more comfortable you will feel.


Call us today to book your dental appointment. We can discuss our sterilization process further during your visit.

“Great experience today, cleaning and check up. Covid safety procedures were clear and the staff helpful. My dental hygienist (hope that's the correct title) was super friendly and kind and provided me with lots of tips to help me maintain my dental health."

“I had the best experience ever with the Dentist and staff at the Cariboo Dental Clinic. After spending a week in absolute pain, I was ready to pull out my own tooth. Not only was I able to keep my teeth, they repaired two others at the same time and fit me in for a cleaning as well. I felt no pain during the procedures and was treated amazingly by all staff.
My hats off to all the staff at Cariboo Dental Clinic."
