Medical instruments are normally cleaned with soap and water, and then sterilized in a device called an "autoclave", which kills all pathogenic viruses and bacteria by a long-term exposure to superheated steam.The trouble and expense of autoclaving medical tools is one of the reasons that more and more medical tools are disposable, and are used only once before being disposed of.
Autoclaving uses high pressure and temperature to sterilize instruments and materials, which is more effective at killing all types of microorganisms, including spores, compared to boiling which may not reach a high enough temperature. Autoclaving also achieves sterilization more quickly than boiling, making it a more efficient method for healthcare settings.
Tools such as scissors, forceps, scalpels, tweezers, and dental instruments can be effectively sterilized in a UV cabinet. UV light is particularly useful for surfaces and objects that are difficult to sterilize through traditional methods like autoclaving.
Objects that may be sterilized using high temperature include surgical instruments, glassware, metal tools, and plastic equipment. High temperature sterilization methods such as autoclaving or dry heat sterilization are commonly used in medical, pharmaceutical, and laboratory settings to ensure that these items are free of microorganisms.
My mom is a dental hygienist. They have to sanitize everything before and after a patient from new bags over the head rest on the chair to sanitized teeth cleaning equipment. They have a special dishwasher that washes and then sanitizes the teeth cleaning tools after use.
