Dental high-speed handpiece and ultrasonic scaler aerosol …
Exposure to aerosol spray generated by high-speed handpieces (HSHs) and ultrasonic scalers poses a significant health risk to oral health practitioners from airborne pathogens. Aerosol generation varies with different HSH designs, but to date, no study has measured this.
Dental aerosol - Wikipedia
Dental aerosol from a dental hand piece. A dental aerosol is an aerosol that is produced from dental instrument, dental handpieces, three-way syringes, and other high-speed instruments. These aerosols may remain suspended in the clinical environment. [1]
Aerosol suppression from a handpiece using viscoelastic solution …
2022年10月18日 · The present study is the next stage of the aerosol-limiting approach, 6 which revealed that the use of viscoelastic polymer solutions can suppress aerosolization from a high-speed handpiece, which is widely used in dentistry.
Effectiveness of interventions to reduce aerosol generation in …
Aerosol-generating procedures (AGPs), including ultrasonic scalers, air abrasion, polishing teeth, opening teeth for drainage, cementation of fixed prosthesis, placement of dental implant, and tooth extraction, are commonly used in dental practice.
High-volume evacuation mitigates viral aerosol spread in dental ...
2023年11月3日 · Virus-containing aerosol production of an air turbine handpiece, a high-speed dental handpiece, an ultrasonic scaler, and an air–water syringe was investigated in 15-min procedures.
Aerosol Generating Dental Procedures and Its Containment
Dentists have been shown to produce more intense aerosol and splatter with handpieces without a rubber dam or ultrasonic scalers, but any source of dental equipment is capable of sending an airborne virus up to eight feet in all directions.
Suppress the aerosol generation from the air turbine handpiece …
2022年8月17日 · Reducing the aerosol generation (especially the droplets of smaller diameters) from the very beginning will ease the burden on all subsequent layers of protection. In this work, we first provide a relatively complete picture of the structure of the spray produced by the air turbine handpiece.
Aerosol and splatter generation with rotary handpieces used in
2022年9月6日 · This systematic review assesses the literature for changes in aerosol-contamination levels when rotary instruments are used, (1) as distance increases from patient’s mouth; (2) as time passes...
The effect of high-speed dental handpiece coolant delivery and design ...
2021年9月1日 · High-speed dental instruments produce aerosol and droplets. The objective of this study was to evaluate aerosol and droplet production from a novel electric micromotor handpiece (without compressed air coolant) in real world clinical settings.
Aerosol reduction efficacy of different intra-oral suction devices ...
The aim of this study was to evaluate a variety of commonly used intra-oral suction devices and measure their effects on aerosol mitigation, in real-time, using particle sensors during ultrasonic scaling and high-speed handpiece AGPs.
