| Popis | The World Health Organization (WHO) released guidelines for the use of special Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and avoiding and minimising use of aerosols during COVID-19 pandemic. Professional dental hygien is the most aerosol-producing chair-side activity in dentistry. A small fraction of contaminated droplets usually goes back into the air during almost all dental procedures, and virus, bacteria, and fungi could contaminate each surface in the dental offcie for days. |
