“…The route of cross-infection begins with dental impressions, which will drag a series of microorganisms (bacteria, fungi, viruses) present in oral tissues, saliva, blood [ 17 , 18 ], tartar which can become opportunistic pathogens in susceptible subjects. These germs can remain viable after emptying for at least 24 h [ 19 ].…”

“…High- and low-speed dental handpieces and ultrasonic scalers elevated the aerosol concentration levels compared to the aerosol levels measured during oral examination. Liu et al 2023 The bioaerosol concentration: Without OSSM > with OSSM OSSM use in dental clinics can reduce the exposure concentrations of bioaerosols for healthcare workers during dental treatment and is beneficial for minimizing the risk of infectious diseases such as COVID-19. Logothetis and Martinez-Welles, 1995 The number of bacteria: water (conrol) > chlorhexidine (test); dantiseptic mouthwash (test) > chlorhexidine (test) Bacterial counts collected during the treatment indicate that the chlorhexidine pretreatment rinse was significantly more effective than the other solutions in reducing bacterial aerosols.…”
