A stricter disinfectant standard
CDC guidance calls for EPA-registered tuberculocidal disinfectants on clinical contact surfaces in dental settings, a higher bar than general medical office cleaning.

Dental Office Cleaning in Los Angeles
Aerosol travels
further than you think.
Cleaning for Los Angeles dental practices, scoped around the difference between a clinical contact surface and a housekeeping surface — the line most vendors cannot draw.
The practice
Dental is stricter than medical, not equal to it.
Drills, ultrasonic scalers, and air-water syringes generate aerosol and spatter that can travel several metres and settle well outside the operatory. That changes what a cleaning scope has to account for.
The line vendors miss
Most commercial crews cannot distinguish a clinical contact surface from a housekeeping surface. That distinction is where infection control becomes a licensing problem, so Qinti writes it down instead of assuming.
Operatory turnover stays yours
Between-patient operatory disinfection happens on your clinical protocol, by your staff. Qinti handles the housekeeping surfaces around it.
The scope
Housekeeping surfaces, named individually.
The scope lists the surfaces Qinti cleans and the products used on each, so nothing is left to a crew member deciding in the moment.
Reception and waiting
Seating, check-in counters, glass, magazines and toy areas where present, and floors reset between days.
Operatory floors and housekeeping surfaces
Floors, cabinetry exteriors, walls, and fixtures inside the operatory that are not clinical contact surfaces, cleaned after your staff completes clinical disinfection.
Aerosol fallout zones
Because spatter settles beyond the chair, corridor surfaces and shared areas adjacent to operatories are given specific attention in the scope.
Restrooms and sterilization-area floors
Patient and staff restrooms, plus the floors and general surfaces of the sterilization area, with instrument handling excluded.
Clinical contact surfaces stay yours
Chairs, lights, handpieces, trays, counters in the immediate treatment field, and anything requiring tuberculocidal protocol remain with your trained staff.
Regulated waste stays yours
Sharps, amalgam, and biohazard waste follow your own licensed process. Qinti removes general waste only.
How we begin
Surface by surface, in writing.
A dental scope that says only "clean the operatory" is a compliance risk. Qinti agrees the surface list with the practice before quoting.
Complimentary walkthrough
We walk the practice with your office manager or infection-control lead and classify each surface as clinical contact or housekeeping.
Written scope and frequency
You receive the surface-by-surface scope, the products and dwell times used, and an explicit list of what remains with your clinical staff.
One-week paid pilot
Qualified recurring accounts may begin with a one-week paid introductory pilot, followed by a joint review before ongoing service is approved.
Ongoing service
Crews are background-checked Qinti W-2 employees with supervisor checks against the written scope. Qinti has served Los Angeles-area clients since 2008 and is insured and bonded.
“Over the years, they have consistently provided outstanding service.”
Useful questions
Before we walk the practice.
Dental office managers ask about the compliance boundary first. These are the questions that matter.
Do you clean operatories between patients?
No. Between-patient operatory disinfection is clinical work performed by your own trained staff on your infection-control protocol. Qinti cleans the housekeeping surfaces, floors, and shared areas, typically after hours.
What is the difference between a clinical contact surface and a housekeeping surface?
Clinical contact surfaces are touched during treatment or exposed to spatter, and CDC guidance calls for EPA-registered tuberculocidal disinfectants on them. Housekeeping surfaces are floors, walls, and fixtures. Qinti classifies every surface in writing during the walkthrough so the boundary is never guessed.
Does dental cleaning differ from medical office cleaning?
Yes, in two ways. The disinfectant standard for clinical contact surfaces is more stringent, and aerosol from drills and ultrasonic scalers spreads contamination further, so the areas adjacent to operatories need attention that a medical scope would not include.
Do you handle sharps or amalgam waste?
No. Sharps, amalgam, and biohazard waste are handled through your own licensed process. Qinti removes general waste and recycling only.
When do you clean a dental practice?
After the last appointment or overnight, so floors and shared surfaces are finished before the first patient arrives and nothing interferes with clinical turnover during the day.
