During dental treatment procedures ultrasonic scalers generate droplets containing microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses. Hence, it is necessary to study the dynamic properties of generated in order investigate risks associated with spread infection. The aim this was visualise flow state evaluate impact during use an scaler oral surgical procedure.
