Our Team Follows Infection Control & Universal Precautions
Infection controls and universal precautions protect clients and staff alike. Everyone benefits from rigorous infection control — you, your dentist, and the dental team. The cornerstone in a good and safe dental practice is the element of trust. You should feel free to discuss this topic with Dr. Hasheem and receive a straightforward answer.
Dr. Hasheem and our entire team follow procedures recommended by several federal agencies: the Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC).
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.
Don’t hesitate to get the care you need – contact us today to learn more.

We had our first visit at Shaenfield Family Dental for my three kids’ cleanings. They made all of the kids feel comfortable and were very down to Earth. They did very 4 year old friendly x-rays and praised all the kids for being helpful and cooperative. Dr. Hasheem recommended us to a pediatric oral surgeon down the street for my six year old who needs more work involving anesthesia. We’ll definitely be routine clients!- Shelbie W
