The Effectiveness of a Novel Air-Barrier Device for Aerosol Reduction in a Dental Environment: Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulation

Abstract: The use of equipment such as dental handpieces and ultrasonic tips in the dental environment has potentially heightened the generation and spread of aerosols, which are dispersant particles contaminated by etiological factors. Although numerous types of personal protective equipment have been used to lower contact with contaminants, they generally do not exhibit excellent removal rates and user-friendliness in tandem. To solve this problem, we developed a prototype of an air-barrier device that forms an air cu… Show more
