About waterline filters
In-line microfilters are among the methods CDC describes as effective, alongside self-contained water systems combined with chemical treatment and combinations of these treatments. The ADA lists filtration among the methods for improving dental unit water quality, while noting that these methods will not eliminate biofilms. The FDA tells practitioners to implement equipment and procedures such as separate reservoirs, chemical treatment protocols, use of filtration systems and sterile water delivery systems.
Treats the incoming water to remove or inactivate microorganisms, for a single chair or for the whole practice.
