Aerosols Hanging in the Dental Clinic: How a Dental and Aesthetic Clinic Took Control of Infection with the AIROFOG U260 ULV Fogger
Dental and aesthetic clinics are spaces where procedures generate large amounts of airborne aerosol, carrying germs from one patient that linger in the room and risk reaching the next. This is the true story of a dentist who raised her clinic's infection control with the AIROFOG U260 ULV fogger.
A True Story: The Patient Who Asked If the Room Was Disinfected
Dr. Praew, a dentist who owns a clinic in Chiang Mai, got a blunt question from a patient: had the room from the previous patient been disinfected before his turn? It made her think about the aerosol from the dental drill that hangs in the air after every procedure.
During a season of flu and respiratory illness, many patients began asking about the clinic's hygiene measures before booking, and some chose clinics that clearly posted photos of room disinfection, showing Dr. Praew that infection control had become a selling point.
Wiping the chair and table between patients was doable, but the aerosol settling on walls, lamps and equipment around the room was never fully wiped, and the air-conditioned closed room recirculated germs.
A friend who runs an aesthetic clinic suggested ULV fogging between patients and at closing, to handle germs both in the air and on the surfaces that procedures create.
Why Clinic Aerosols Are a Risk You Can't Overlook
Many dental and aesthetic procedures create aerosols carrying germs from a patient's mouth and skin into the air and onto surfaces around the room, a risk to the next patient and the team.
A clinic is where patients expect the highest safety. Even one story of in-clinic infection causes incalculable damage to reputation and trust.
In today's clinic competition, patients choose places that look clean with clear measures, so good infection control is both ethical and good marketing.
Why Surface Wiping Alone Isn't Enough
Wiping the chair and table handles only the main contact surfaces, while aerosol settling on walls, lamps and surrounding equipment is often missed.
Germs floating in a closed room's air are not handled by surface wiping, and the air system may recirculate them.
Between back-to-back patients, time is limited, so wiping every spot thoroughly is hard in practice.
The AIROFOG U260 Handles Aerosol Germs in the Air and on Surfaces
The AIROFOG U260, an 800-watt electric ULV fogger, turns disinfectant into a 15-30 micron mist that spreads across the procedure room, handling germs floating in the air and settled on walls, lamps and surrounding equipment, a real infection-control tool to use between patients and at closing.
