The article presents the results of an experimental and clinical study evaluating the effectiveness of regular ventilation in dental operatories to reduce airborne aerosol load and prevent respiratory infections. In simulated dental sessions, 10-minute ventilation after each patient halved both aerosol sedimentation time and microbial air contamination (p<0.01). A 12-month observational phase showed a reduction in respiratory infections among staff (0.44 cases per person per year with ventilation vs. 1.0 without; p=0.048). Regular ventilation is confirmed as a simple and effective infection control measure to improve sanitary safety in dental practice.
Keywords:aerosol, dental infection, ventilation, air exchange, respiratory diseases, prevention, microbial air contamination, airborne transmission.
