The associations between dental charts and the probability of cross-contamination were examined by swabbing contaminated charts and plating the specimens on agar medium to be analyzed. Laboratory analysis of the agar plates revealed, that out of the twenty-one charts tested, fifteen were positive for bacterial growth, therefore, contaminated charts are a viable vector for cross-contamination. Further barrier techniques need to be implemented, which in turn would decrease the contamination potential for the spread of infection.
