Abstract

The introduction of novel variants of infectious viruses causes viral outbreaks. And now we are in the midst of a virus pandemic that is affecting the entire world. The lack of efficient antiviral treatments for novel viral infections, along with the infection's rapid spread in the population, frequently results in significant human and financial damage. Close human-to-human touch or contact with a contaminated surface can both transmit viruses. To prevent viral spread, thorough cleaning or sanitization is required. There are a variety of disinfectants/sanitizing agents/biocidal agents that can inactivate viruses, but their effectiveness is dependent on a number of parameters, including agent concentration, reaction time, temperature, and organic load. In this review, we will be discussing the alcohol- and iodine-based disinfectants in a dental health-care setting.
