Description: Water is a main source of contamination in dental patients, classified into two classes: the first from the primary water supply, (ie,public water) and the second one, which is attached to the hoses walls of the dental unit, forming a biofilm. Due to stagnation of oral fluids are aspirated during the procedure. The biofilm will be continuously polluting the hoses from the unit and expelling microorganisms to the patient’s oral cavity where they generate aerosols that can contaminate the environment, surfaces, instruments and health personnel, which is a public health risk. In Colombia there are not official reports or data to control this public health problem, so the risk of bacterial contamination and infection are still latent today.
El agua es una fuente importante de contaminación en pacientes odontológicos, esta contaminación se ha clasificado en dos clases: la primera, proveniente del suministro primario de agua, es decir, del agua pública y, la segunda, la que se encuentra adherida a las paredes de las mangueras de la unidad odontológica formando una biocapa, que se forma por los fluidos orales que son aspirados durante el procedimiento. La biocapa estará continuamente contaminando las mangueras de la unidad y expulsando microorganismos a la cavidad oral del paciente donde se generan aerosoles que pueden contaminar el ambiente, las superficies, los instrumentos y al personal de salud, lo que representa un riesgo en salud pública. En Colombia, no existen reportes oficiales ni datos que permitan controlar este problema de salud pública, por lo que los riesgos de contaminación e infección bacteriana siguen siendo latentes en la actualidad.
