When it comes to infection control in dentistry, sterilisation isn’t just a tick-box exercise. It’s the foundation of patient safety and compliance. For hollow instruments especially, simplify running a cycle isn’t enough. You need clear, reliable confirmation that your autoclave has performed effectively.

That’s where the HS Helix Test Kit and Strips Refill can help. Together, they take the guesswork out of daily autoclave testing, giving you peace of mind with every load.

Why Choose The HS Helix Test Kit?

The HS Helix Test Kit simulates the toughest conditions inside your autoclave, just like what your hollow handpieces go through. If the steam can get through the narrow lumen of the test device, it can reach even the trickiest corners of your instruments.

Still relying on external indicators or visual checks? That’s a risk you don’t need to take.

With the HS Helix Test Kit you get:

Real-world assurance: Designed to mimic the sterilisation challenge of hollow instruments, this kit shows whether your autoclave truly meets the mark.
Fast, easy testing: Pop the chemical indicator strip into the holder, run your normal cycle, and check the result. A clear colour change indicates a clear result.
Easy documentation: The latex-free, self-adhesive backing makes it simple to peel and stick your results directly into your logbook.
Standards compliant: Fully conforms to ISO 18472, the recognised international standard for sterilisation test devices.
All-in-one solution: Comes with a reusable Helix PCD (Process Challenge Device) and 250 sheets, so you're set up for consistent daily testing.

And when you run out?

The HS Helix Test Strips Refill packs in 250 replacement indicator sheets, letting you keep testing daily without skipping a beat.

A simple definition of CAD/CAM dentistry is the use of digital software to design and manufacture dental restorations and prostheses. CAD stands for computer-aided design and CAM stands for computer-aided manufacturing. The technology can be used to create crowns, dentures, inlays, onlays, bridges and veneers among other things. The speed of the CAD/CAM process allows for dental prosthetics to be designed, manufactured and delivered to the patient in quick time, sometimes the same day. The wider system of using computer assisted technologies to produce restorations is known as CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Aesthetic Ceramics).

With HS Helix Test Strips there is:

No more wondering if your autoclave is performing properly.
No more uncertainty with hollow or lumened instruments.

Just straightforward, confidence-boosting results, day in, day out.

The HS Helix Test Kit and Strips Refill are smart, stress-free tools to build into your daily sterilisation routine. They're small additions that make a big difference to your infection control protocol.
