CDC ON DENTAL WATER LINES. “Dental unit waterlines (i.e., narrow-bore plastic tubing that carries water to the high-speed handpiece, air/water syringe, and ultrasonic scaler) can become colonized with microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi, and protozoa … these microorganisms colonize and replicate on the interior surfaces of the waterline tubing and form a biofilm.”
