Dental procedures often produce aerosol and splatter which have the potential to transmit pathogens such as SARS-CoV-2. The existing literature is limited.To develop a robust, reliable valid methodology evaluate distribution persistence of dental splatter, including evaluation clinical procedures.Fluorescein was introduced into irrigation reservoirs high-speed air-turbine, ultrasonic scaler 3-in-1 spray, were performed on mannequin in triplicate. Filter papers placed immediate environment....
Introduction Dental procedures produce splatter and aerosol which have potential to spread pathogens such as SARS-CoV-2. Mixed evidence exists on the aerosol-generating of orthodontic procedures. The aim this study was evaluate and/or settled contamination during debonding.Material methods Fluorescein dye introduced into oral cavity a mannequin. Orthodontic debonding undertaken with surrounding samples collected. Composite bonding cement removed using speed-increasing handpiece dental...
People with alcohol dependence (AD) frequently experience oral health problems, but their dental attendance is poor, limited evidence to the reasons why from perspective.
Abstract Background Dental procedures often produce aerosol and splatter which are potentially high risk for spreading pathogens such as SARS-CoV-2. The existing literature is limited. Objective(s) To develop a robust, reliable valid methodology to evaluate distribution persistence of dental splatter, including the evaluation clinical procedures. Methods Fluorescein was introduced into irrigation reservoirs high-speed air-turbine, ultrasonic scaler 3-in-1 spray performed on mannequin in...
Aim: To identify splatter and aerosol distribution resulting from dental generating procedures (AGPs) in the open plan clinic environment. A secondary aim is to explore detailed time course of settling after an AGP. Methodology: Dental were undertaken on a mannequin. Fluorescein dye was placed into irrigation system high-speed air turbine handpiece for first experimental design, second, fluorescein entered mannequin's mouth via artificial salivary ducts. Filter papers at set distances around...
Introduction: Dental procedures often produce splatter and aerosol which have potential to spread pathogens such as SARS-CoV-2. Mixed guidance exists on the generating of orthodontic procedures. The aim this study was evaluate and/or contamination during an debonding procedure.Material Methods: Fluorescein dye introduced into oral cavity a mannequin. Orthodontic carried out in triplicate with filter papers placed immediate environment. Composite bonding cement removed using slow-speed...

Abstract Aims To establish the current support and knowledge around mental health equality, diversity inclusion at a UK Dental School make suggestions about improvements. Objectives Conduct survey of dental undergraduate students Newcastle to elicit responses Methods Bachelor Surgery Oral Health Science University were invited participate in this cross-sectional via email. Following electronic consent, an questionnaire online form builder was distributed Participants asked questions on...
Objectives: High-speed dental instruments produce aerosol and droplets. The objective of this study was to evaluate droplet production from a novel electric micromotor handpiece (without compressed air coolant) in real world clinical settings. Methods: 10-minute upper incisor crown preparations were performed triplicate an open-plan clinic with mechanical ventilation providing 3.45 changes per hour. A 1:5 ratio which allows water coolant without (Ti-Max Z95L, NSK) used at three speeds:...
