“One of the main ways in which SARS-CoV-2 is communicated is through airborne respiratory droplets\u2014droplets that can be dispersed as a result of dental procedures. In a new study, researchers from Newcastle University have examined the applicability of local exhaust ventilation (LEV) systems for controlling the dispersion of these droplets and aerosols and found that they could be quite valuable for this purpose.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Dental procedures produce aerosols which contain oral microbes, creating potential for infectious disease transmission. This study, \u201cLocal Exhaust Ventilation to Control Dental Aerosols and Droplets<\/a>\u201d published in the Journal of Dental Research<\/em> (JDR<\/em>), investigated the effect of a Local Exhaust Ventilation (LEV) device on aerosols and droplets produced during dental procedures. These devices are designed to be placed over the patient\u2019s mouth to capture aerosols and droplets at the source.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
