Disinfection and decontamination including sterilization of devices take a lot of time. For the sake of convenience and hygiene, there are many non-sterile and sterile single-use-disposable supplies available for safe provision of dental care. Some reusable devices cannot be adequately cleaned and therefore sterility may not be assured, therefore, single-use-disposable devices play an important role in replacing such reusable devices. Single-use-disposable devices are commonly used in dentistry as they are easy to use and can be discarded after one use. All devices/instruments/supplies that enter the oral cavity should be sterile reusable items or sterile or non-sterilie single-use-disposable items. In this paper we address comprehensively the rationale for use of such devices and also the pragmatic use of such devices in dentistry.
包括器械灭菌在内的消毒和去污工作需要耗费大量时间。为了方便和卫生，有许多非无菌和无菌的一次性用品可用于安全的牙科护理。一些可重复使用的器械无法得到充分清洁，因此可能无法保证无菌状态，所以一次性器械在替代此类可重复使用器械方面发挥着重要作用。一次性器械在牙科中普遍使用，因为它们易于使用且使用一次后即可丢弃。所有进入口腔的器械/仪器/用品都应该是无菌的可重复使用物品，或者是无菌或非无菌的一次性物品。在本文中，我们全面阐述了使用此类器械的基本原理以及它们在牙科中的实际应用。
