Water you can brag about
Compliance can be tricky – but we’ve cracked the code to safe water.
Shocking
The best way to get your waterlines clean is to shock them with a solution that removes pesky biofilm build-up. Shocking is a critical first step to your waterline routine. It resets your lines and kills bacteria.
Treating
Keep biofilm at bay with patient-safe treatments that reduce bacteria growth. Just like teeth, your waterlines need regular attention to ward off harmful bacteria and stay squeaky clean.
Testing
Your waterlines are an oasis for bacteria. Even in new lines and sterile water, bacteria can form up to 200,000 CFU/mL within 5 days. Testing your water is the only way to verify the efficacy of your maintenance protocol.

“ProEdge not only has a very easy product with process support, but the customer service is second to none. We had one clinic that continued to fail their water test, despite our efforts to shock and maintain the lines.

Testing is an essential step in waterline maintenance and verifies that your water is safe from bacteria. Where treating and shocking protect your patients, waterline testing protects your practice and ensures your water is compliant with the CDC standards.
Yes! Bacteria love the small, carbon-filled, moist environment inside of your dental unit waterlines. When bacteria get nice and cozy in your waterlines, they create protective colonies called biofilm. Thanks to a study by Dr. John Molinari and Nancy Dewhirst, RDH, we know that even in brand new waterlines using sterile water, bacteria levels can grow to over 200,000 CFU/mL in just five days. Biofilm is sticky and stubborn, making it hard to remove from waterlines. This is why the 3-step proven protocol, shocking, treating, and testing, is essential to ensuring that you’re providing safe water to your patients.
Every effective waterline protocol that helps keep your waterlines safe for patients consists of 3 steps: shocking, treating, and testing. You don’t have to build your waterline maintenance routine alone – we’re here to guide you every step of the way.
Failing a test can be frustrating, so we’re here to help. We recommend shocking, testing, and evaluating. If this is your first-time remediating, reach out to our team!
