Why Infection Control Training Matters for the ADC Exam

• Infection control is one of the most critical components of the ADC exam.
• It’s also one of the most commonly failed areas—often due to avoidable mistakes.
• Many overseas dentists are unfamiliar with Australian guidelines and best practices.
• Common breaches include:
  • Inadequate hand hygiene
  • Incorrect use of PPE (Personal Protective Equipment)
  • Poor instrument handling
  • Improper setup or management of the technical/Skills OSCE stations
• These mistakes can lead to serious deductions, even if you think your performance is fine.
• This course ensures you are:
  • ✔ Fully compliant with ADC and Australian standards
  • ✔ Confident and well-prepared to avoid critical errors
  • ✔ Up to date with local expectations and safe practice techniques
