Dental care is sometimes urgent and the pain makes it even more worse for the one experiencing it.
Getting a Corona testing done has to be the new norm before treating any patient these days.
It is important for the clinics to thoroughly carry out thermal screening,pulse oximeter should be used to check oxygen saturation levels as well. Some dentists give patients protective disposable gowns as they enter the clinic. Even doctors wear proper personal protective equipment (PPE). Face shield and hand sanitizers have become very useful. Anti fog goggles are of much value to the dentists while dental procedures are done.
It is very important and necessary that clinics strictly adhere to highest standards of sterilization of dental instruments to curtail the risk to a greater extent. Constant sanitisation of surfaces is mighty important.
Dental procedures can be risky for the dentist as well. Many procedures use high-pressure sprays of water and air, this itself can actually spread the aerosols from a positive patient in the dental operatory. To tackle it, clinics need high quality HEPA filtration to make sure the air is constantly and reliably cleaned. Face shields can also help in protecting against aerosols.Respirators have also been into use especially during Corona Pandemic.
PRACTICE SAFE DENTISTRY!!
