for be the Best In Practice!

Today, being great at fixing people’s teeth isn’t enough.

If until recently your first concern was acquiring new patients and keep the existing ones by offering a unique and inviting experience, nowadays, the COVID-19 has challenged health professions and systems.

The role of dental professionals in preventing the transmission of COVID-19 is critically important. 
Due to the unique characteristics of dental procedures where a large number of droplets and aerosols could be generated, the standard protective measures in daily clinical work are not effective enough to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
Therefore, it is crucial for dentists to refine preventive strategies and to implement good practices to avoid the infection spreading.

But no worries, we have created this section to support you: patient placement, hand hygiene, isolation and all personal protective equipment (PPE) and much more.

Here you can find all the Best Practices you need not only to prevent the spread of COVID-19 but to be The Best in Practice!
