When e-learning takes centre stage amid COVID-19: Dental educators' perspectives and their future impacts

Charlene E. Goh et al.

Summary: The study found that dental educators lacked experience in e-learning, faced challenges in engaging students, assessing student understanding, and adapting teaching methods. Factors such as audience motivation, class size, teaching type, and material complexity were seen as influencing the suitability of e-learning. Educators reported increased confidence after emergency e-learning and some considered continuing or expanding e-learning in the future.

Evaluating aerosol and splatter following dental procedures: Addressing new challenges for oral health care and rehabilitation

James R. Allison et al.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the distribution and persistence of dental aerosol and splatter by introducing fluorescein into irrigation reservoirs. The results showed that dental procedures generate aerosol and splatter, with contamination being effectively cleared by suction and within 30 minutes post-procedure. The two analytic methods used in the study showed good correlation.

Fighting viruses with materials science: Prospects for antivirus surfaces, drug delivery systems and artificial intelligence

Vinicius Rosa et al.

Summary: This article discusses the interaction mechanisms between viruses and materials, novel strategies in material development, and the potential of artificial intelligence in preventive and therapeutic measures. By fine-tuning the physical and chemical properties of materials, utilizing oral antiviral delivery systems, and leveraging artificial intelligence, infectivity can be reduced and antiviral therapies can be improved for the safety and well-being of humans.

Mechanisms of Atomization from Rotary Dental Instruments and Its Mitigation

A. Sergis et al.

Summary: This study investigates the fundamental mechanisms associated with spray production from rotary dental instruments, focusing on high-risk components like the production of small droplets and high-velocity droplets. Through parametric studies and high-speed imaging, the characteristics and control methods of sprays were identified.

Aerosol-generating dental procedures: a reappraisal of analysis methods and infection control measures

K. S. Tan et al.

Summary: This study aimed to address the limitations of existing infection control monitoring studies by establishing a monitoring protocol involving active aerosol sampling and analysis of two dental AGPs. The findings showed that root canal treatment generated minimal aerosol and splatter, while scaling significantly increased aerosol and splatter production. Comparing bacterial culture and ATP assay, the ATP assay detected more contamination, suggesting it may be more sensitive in detecting additional sources of contamination.

Fallow time determination in dentistry using aerosol measurement in mechanically and non-mechanically ventilated environments

Shakeel Shahdad et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the fallow time required after dental aerosol generating procedures in both mechanically ventilated and non-mechanically ventilated environments. It was found that high-efficiency particulate air-filtered mechanical ventilation, along with mitigation techniques such as high-volume suction, resulted in a reduction of fallow time. Additionally, the use of an extraoral suction device was more effective in reducing particulate counts in non-mechanically ventilated environments.
