THE BANE OF INDOOR AIR QUALITY AT DENTAL CLINIC

Dentists, dental assistants and lab technicians are some of the most unhealthy jobs in the world due to high levels of indoor pollution. Not only are dental offices high-traffic spaces, where patients are sources of air pollution due to exfoliation of particles such as the dangerous Staphylococcus aureus, the importance of aerosols and mercury vapor management are also often neglected. The nature of work is such that patients can’t afford to wear a mask over their mouth during diagnosis or surgery, which results in microbes and viruses remaining airborne in the chamber for hours on end. As a result, both the staff in the clinic and patients are in the firing line of transmission of infectious airborne particles between dentists and their patients.


SOURCES OF INDOOR AIR POLLUTION


HOW TO TACKLE INDOOR POLLUTION IN DENTAL CARES

Air Purifiers are known to effectively eliminate indoor pollutants, airborne allergens, and bacterial-, fungal- and viral-infected droplets.

WHAT TO LOOK OUT FOR IN AN AIR PURIFIER DESIGNED FOR DENTAL CARES

While there are many filters used in air purifiers, there are some that are more relevant for dental cares.

Activated Carbon Filter

This filter works on the principle of adsorption, where gaseous pollutants react chemically with the activated carbon and sticks to the filter. As a result, this filter effectively blocks harmful chemicals and gases such as chemical vapors, methyl methacrylate monomer etc.

HEPA Filter

A HEPA filter is always used in combination with an activated carbon filter to achieve highly-efficient air filtration. Our medical-grade HEPA 13 is the most efficient filter for people suffering from allergies and asthma. It has proven to remove an incredible 99.97% of airborne irritants that are as small as 0.3 microns.

Ultraviolet

The ultraviolet filters are a game-changer. This new technology uses ultraviolet light to incinerate bacteria passing through it.

Photo Catalyst Filter

These filters contain titanium dioxide. They purify the air with the help of UV light. When the UV light shines upon the titanium dioxide electrons, the electrons start interacting with water molecules and form hydroxyl radicals. The hydroxyl radicals then attack the larger organic pollutant molecules and turn them into harmless substances like water.

Electrostatic Precipitator (ESP)

The ESP filter helps in removing fine particles like dust and smoke. It works by forcing the dirty gas to pass through two electrodes. The first electrode is charged to a negative voltage and the second electrode is charged to a positive voltage. As the dust particles move through the first electrode, they pick up a negative charge. Then, when they move towards the positive charged electrode, the dust and soot particles stick to the positive electrode because opposite charges attract each other.
