| Occupational exposure to airborne particles and bioaerosols in dental clinics is a potential hazard to dental health workers. Current studies on airborne particles and bioaerosols in dental clinics are limited and methodologically diverse, leaving gaps in the understanding of airborne particles in real-life dental settings. The aim of the study was to investigate the size, concentration, and composition of particles produced during dental procedures, and determine the exposure levels of dental personnel to respirable particles and bioaerosols in dental clinical environments with different characteristics. The study included two conventional dentist offices and one specialty clinic. Read more. |
