Breathe Easier with High-Quality PPE
In the quest to find comfortable PPE that’s both safe and durable, look no further than masks, gloves, and lab jackets from Patterson Dental
From business professional and business formal to smart casual and business casual, there’s more than one way to dress for success in the workplace. But for dental professionals, no outfit is complete without a mask, gloves, and lab jacket. However, as most clinicians discover over the course of their careers, not all PPE is created equal.
Time to Mask Up!

At the very least, wearing a poor-fitting mask is bound to create some dis- comfort. But for Dr. Suzanne Setayesh, that discomfort went a step further, as the mask she was using had uncomfortable earloops, frequently fogged her glasses, and made breathing difficult. Luckily, she and several other clinicians put Patterson Dental’s Procedure Earloop Mask for Sensitive Skin to the test in a recent DPS product review, giving the ASTM Level 3 mask high marks for its softness, breathability, and comfortable earloops.
“This mask is lightweight with material that makes it easy to breathe, has a soft lining that is thick but very comfortable, reduced fog on my eyeglasses, and has earloops that don’t pull on my ears,” said Dr. Setayesh, adding that the soft wire piece at the nose gave the mask a better fit and seal to her face.
The Procedure Earloop Mask for Sensitive Skin features a lightweight and breathable cellulose-blend inner layer that softens with wear and remains cool on the skin, while wicking technology keeps the face dry and comfortable throughout the procedure.
“The elastic was a perfect size and the mask fit well around the nose,” noted Maitland, FL, hygienist Donna Chuchla. “The inside lining made it comfortable and moisture absorbent, which, in turn, helped with anti-fogging.”
Grab Some Gloves...
Patterson’s Chloroprene Examination Gloves, available in sizes small through extra-large, offer a high level of durability and comfort, especially during periods of extended wear. With a beaded cuff and slightly roughened fingertips for added gripping ability, the gloves are latex-free, aqua in color, and come 200 to a box.
...And a Jacket

Just as a businesswoman dons a blazer before a big meeting, dentists and hygienists button up a lab jacket before setting foot in the operatory. Designed to protect clinicians from cross-contamination, airborne splatter, and debris, Patterson’s Premium Lab Jackets are made of lightweight, breathable, latex-free material for maximum comfort, with a knit collar and cuffs for increased comfort and protection. Available in a variety of sizes in blue, pink, white, and purple shades, the lab jackets have 3 pockets and front snap closure for convenience.
