摘要：
Assesses the degree of contamination of endodontic files after reprocessing in a number of general dental practices.Each file was assessed for visual contamination and residual blood deposits.Seventy-five per cent of files showed visible evidence of contamination and 7% of files had residual blood deposits.Endodontic files are not reliably decontaminated using procedures readily available in general dental practice.
