ABSTRACT
The neoteric coronavirus outburst has jeopardised the health care system globally. As a result, practising dentistry has severe constraints due to production of aerosols and splatter in a large quantity. Air management gains foremost importance in reducing the transmission of SARS-COV-2 in a dental operatory. A variety of air filtration techniques have been put forth to optimize the air quality by removing the pollutants and pathogens. Amidst the blowing wave of information accessible online and on social media, it is puzzling to identify dependable research data and guidance to equip the operatory to minimize the risk of disease by aerosol, droplet and contact transmission. This paper presents comprehensive review on the different air purification technologies, their mechanism and utility in reducing viral load with the aim of providing information in regards to setting up a dental operatory with reduced risk of disease transmission in the post COVID-19 era (AU).
RESUMO
A explosão neotérica de coronavírus colocou em risco o sistema de saúde global. Como um dos resultados, a prática odontológica passou a ter restrições severas devido à sua grande produção de aerossóis e respingos. O gerenciamento de ar ganhou uma importância ainda maior na redução da transmissão do SARS-COV-2 em um procedimento odontológico. Uma variedade de técnicas de filtração de ar tem sido colocada para otimizar a qualidade do ar através da remoção de poluentes e patógenos. Em meio à onda de informações disponíveis online e na mídia social, é difícil identificar dados de pesquisas confiáveis e orientações para equipar os operadores a minimizarem os riscos de doenças transmissíveis por aerossóis, gotículas e contato. Este artigo apresenta uma compreensível revisão das diferentes tecnologias de purificação de ar, seus mecanismos e utilidades na redução da carga viral com o objetivo de prover informação quanto à prática odontológica com redução de riscos de transmissão de doenças na era pós COVID-19 (AU)
