FiTMe Lab Coats & Jackets
FiTMe disposable lab coats and jackets provide dental professionals with a breathable, comfortable fit, reliable protection, and a professional look
The topic of personal protective equipment (PPE) has been front and center during the past few years, especially in the field of dentistry. While clinicians need a barrier of protection between themselves and their patients, it can be a struggle to find disposable apparel that provides ample protection, fits well, and looks professional. For Dr. Donald Jetter, a dentist from Voorhees, NJ, the struggle was real until he tried Dukal’s FiTMe lab coats and jackets, which he says are a perfect addition to his PPE armamentarium. “We wear Dukal FiTMe lab jackets in our office because they help provide an effective barrier to protect us, while providing us with a professional look as well,” he said.
Combining Comfort & Convenience
Featuring knitted cuffs and collar, snaps on the front, an adjustable waistband, and 3 pockets, the FiTMe lab coats and jackets offer the comfort of a non-disposable lab coat with the convenience of disposability. These are features that earned the FiTMe lab coats and jackets a prestigious Best Product award in a recent DPS product review.
“The snaps provide for easy on and off and the adjustable waist is ideal,” shared Dr. Jetter. While FiTMe lab coats and jackets are disposable, they are also autoclavable and can be washed for limited reuse. Although Malee Wong, a hygienist in Castle Rock, CO, disposes of her coat after each patient, she explained, “It is nice to have the option to wash them for limited reuse.”

Dr. Kristi Davis appreciates the disposability of the jackets as “it gives another protective layer in knowing you are not traveling home with microbes and debris when you can leave your disposable jacket at work at the end of a busy day.” She continued, “The jackets are well-made and thick enough to pass for a true, fabric clinic jacket. It is rare to find pockets in disposable clinic jackets, and that was a big plus for me.”
Protective & Stylish
“My favorite features are the snaps on the sides and the adjustable waist,” confided Wong. “This combination creates a more flattering and less baggy fit. With most other brands, it feels as if I am wearing a huge, boxy, stiff potato sack, while the FiTMe is a light, breathable, protective, and more fitted jacket when using the snaps.” In addition, Wong said she “feels safe and protected while wearing my FiTMe jacket because it provides a barrier between my clothing and microorganisms in the aerosols from my patients’ mouths.”
Offered in sizes S to XXL and in a variety of colors, FiTMe lab coats and jackets have an option for everyone. “This brand seems to provide deeper colors and less wrinkles compared to other brands,” explained Dr. Jetter. “They are competitively priced and available in a wide array of colors to mix or match, depending upon your individual preferences.”
“I would definitely recommend the FiTMe lab coats and jackets to other dental practitioners because they are highly breathable, protective, and have a more flattering fit than all of the other brands that I have tried,” Wong concluded.
