✔ What inspectors ask for in the first 5 minutes
✔ The most common violations dental offices receive
✔ How to organize your OSHA and infection control documentation
✔ Waterline compliance requirements inspectors are now reviewing
✔ A simple checklist to determine if your office is inspection-ready
Across the country, regulatory agencies are increasing inspections related to:
• Infection control
• Dental unit waterline quality
• OSHA compliance
• Employee health documentation
Many dental practices believe they are compliant until an inspector asks for documentation that cannot be produced quickly.
In many cases, violations occur not because procedures are incorrect — but because documentation systems are disorganized or incomplete.
Preparation is the difference between a smooth inspection and a compliance citation.

During an Inspection, Offices Are Often Asked For These Items Immediately
• Exposure Control Plan
• Employee Hepatitis B documentation
• TB screening records
• Waterline testing logs
• Sterilization monitoring records
• OSHA training documentation
• Hazard Communication Plan
• Safety Data Sheets (SDS)
If these records cannot be located quickly, inspectors may assume the office lacks a proper compliance system.
This guide shows you exactly how to prepare before an inspection occurs.
