VIRUSKILLER™

FOR PREMIUM INDOOR AIR QUALITY FOR DENTAL SURGERIES

For many of us, a trip to the dentist is a daunting prospect.

But in a world where the pandemic has heightened our awareness of the risks posed by enclosed spaces and poor indoor air quality, a dental appointment now sparks very real concerns about our general safety and wellbeing.

Given that dentists, hygienists, and assistants need to work near unmasked patients, the teams at dental practices have an even more difficult challenge when it comes to air hygiene and patient reassurance. Around the world, people are paying increased attention to indoor air quality. We know about particulate matter as a vehicle for viral transmission, the risk of VOCs in urban areas, and the everpresent threat of allergens on wellbeing. But the dental environment has other, unique hazards. Fine particles of dental amalgam commonly used to fill tooth cavities can be released into the air, while fumes from harsh cleaning chemicals can affect the wellbeing and comfort of dentists, patients, and staff — not to mention exposure to anaesthetic gases and patient-generated aerosols. With technology initially designed with sensitive spaces such as dental facilities in mind, decontaminating the air to create safer working environments in places of care is important to us. As dental clinics welcome a steady flow of patients back into their premises, our indoor air safety technology will provide crucial reassurance and trust for everyone in the practice well into the future. Radic8 technology is designed for medically sensitive spaces such as dental surgeries. By focusing on the wellbeing afforded to dentists, hygienists, patients, and staff, our devices can be effectively positioned as an essential additional safety measure, particularly as many dental procedures generate aerosols. Investing in indoor air hygiene is a powerful addition to a practice’s duty of care procedures, and provides crucial reassurance to patients, their families, and staff.

Reception Areas As the point of entry for dental practices, reception areas are prone to a range of indoor air pollutants. VIRUSKILLER™ safely decontaminates the air for the wellbeing of patients and staff. Corridors Corridors in dental practices can contain bioaerosols and airborne contaminants that travel through the practice, spreading germs. Wallmounted provide additional indoor air safety for patients and staff. Dental Surgery During aerosol-generating procedures, microorganisms are dispersed into the air where they linger for hours. A wall-mounted unit between the dentist and patient adds extra protection.
