Evaluation of reduction protocols in managing aerosol generation in caries management in COVID 19 in Riyadh: An original research

Introduction: External high-volume extraction (HVE) devices may offer a way to reduce any aerosol particulate generated. The aim of this study was to measure the particle count during dental aerosol-generating procedures and compare the results with when a HVE device is used. Materials and Methods:...
