Dental teams have always faced a number of potential pathogens including aerosol-transmitted diseases. SARS-CoV-2 shed new light on aerosol-related hazards in dental settings and illuminated the need to improve the quality of air in dental settings. Research supports that improving the air environment in healthcare facilities can help reduce the risk of aerosol transmission.
Improved ventilation and air purification has become more evident than ever amid the COVID-19 pandemic. As our new normal continues to evolve, dental teams need to become more knowledgeable about the functionality of air ventilation in their setting.
Upon completion of this CE webinar, participants will be able to:
• Discuss the relationship between air quality and disease transmission
• Review recent findings on air quality and airborne transmission of COVID-19
• Identify current trends, recommendations, and regulations
• Examine strategies for air decontamination and how to improve air quality
