Sterilization is the most important stage for any treatment to be carried. It is a must for all the instruments to be properly cleaned prior to the sterilization.
It is very important of you to inform the dentist of the issue you have seen .It is most advisable to avoid such things in future.
Hope this was useful.
Thanks and regards.
