KEY TAKEAWAYS:
- It is essential to remove the spray mist from the patient's mouth to prevent it from escaping into the procedure areas.
- HVEs reduce 90% of aerosols when used with properly sized and designed vacuum systems.
- Safety doesn’t stop chairside in the operatory or in the sterilization center. The most effective aerosol mitigation efforts extend through to the mechanical room and outside the practice.
