Optimizing hydrogen peroxide shock treatment frequencies for dental unit waterlines contamination control: a pilot study
Continuous treatment with 0.0141% H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub>, combined with biweekly or weekly 1.41% H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> shock treatment, may help control DUWLs contamination in the short term under the conditions tested. Future studies should expand the sample size and duration for long-term efficacy assessment.
