Although many studies have highlighted the problem of biofilm growth in dental chair unit waterlines (DUWs), no long-term studies on the efficacy of DUW disinfection using a large number of dental chair units (DCUs) have been reported.Objectives: To investigate the long-term (21 months) efficacy of the Planmeca Waterline Cleaning System (WCS (TM)) to maintain the quality of DUW output water below the American Dental Association (ADA) recommended standard of
