Utopia Professional Dental Tarter Scraper, 100% Stainless Steel Double Ended , Easy to Use for Added Tooth Cleaning at Home or Decay Removal in the Professional Dental Office, Resistant to Tarnish and Rust, Easy to Disinfect - By Utopia Care

Q: How do you clean the scraper? Does it need to be sterilized? Or would cleaning it with alcohol or peroxide be better?

Alcohol or hydrogen peroxide will not sterilize anything. Sterilization means to eliminate all life whatsoever. Alcohol and hydrogen peroxide disrupt bacterial membranes and viral shells. But they do not interfere with things like fungal spores, for example, which are present everywhere. The only way to destroy spores is with extreme heat. Which is why sterilizer units like the one in my laboratory at work use highly concentrated steam that's jettisoned into an air tight chamber. The surgical instruments I use on patients are first wrapped in a towel. Which is then wrapped in an IMPERMIABLE DRAPE. Which as the name suggests, cannot be penetrated by water (like what's in the steam) Whatever could possibly make it through the drape is caught by the towel. This is so the instruments can be subjected to extreme heat without actually getting wet. Its important to remember that water breeds life, and while you may think boiling your instruments is a good idea, it's not. There are many "extremophile" species of bacteria that thrive in high temperature environments and will remain alive in the water. Sterilization is a multi step process that involves using powerful disinfectants, intense supersonic vibrations, and ultimately dry steam heat exposure, before actually being achieved. While it may seem fine to use "sterile" instruments at home. I would strongly suggest buying prepackaged sterilized instruments for single uses if you wanted to do any at home medical procedures that you probably shouldnt be doing by yourself.

Q: is there a possibility that this could hurt my teeth?

Yes, if you do not use it properly!! I happen to be a retired dentist and seriously you could do damage with improper or too vigorous use.

Q: Where is the product made

The product is inscribed with Pakistan as the country of origin.
