ABSTRACT
We evaluated the distributions of dental splatters and the corresponding control measure effects with high-speed videography and laser diffraction. Most of the dental splatters were small droplets (<50 µm). High-volume evacuation combined with a suction air purifier could clear away most of the droplets and aerosols.
