NopoGuard was developed by Dental Products Lab to address an unmet need in everyday dentistry. The CDC estimates that 600,000 to 800,000 needlestick injuries occur each year, with many more injuries unreported. Needlestick injuries expose workers to a number of bloodborne pathogens that can cause serious or fatal infections. Because occupational exposure to bloodborne pathogens from accidental sharps injuries in dentistry continues to be a serious problem, OSHA requires employers to identify, evaluate and implement safer needle protection devices such as engineered sharps protections or needleless systems.
