In dentistry, it includes cleaning, disinfection, sterilization, and protective barriers used during patient care. It is used in dental offices, hospitals, surgical centers, and laboratories where body fluids and contaminated surfaces may be present. The goal is to lower the chance of cross-contamination between patients, clinicians, and the clinical environment."}
