What it is about

This episode dives into the legal, clinical, and risk‑management reasons dental teams must keep sterilized instruments sealed in their packaging until the moment they are used. Olivia Wann and Caitlin Denison break down how this simple step protects patients, supports compliance, and shields practices from liability.
