Abstract
As COVID 19 pandemic has rapidly became a public health crisis of global concern, dental office is also affected. Due to the unique characteristics of dental office i.e., generating high volume of aerosol during the dental procedures, both dental health care professionals as well as the patients have increased risk of cross infection. Various devices like extra oral vacuum aspirator, high volume evacuator, and high efficiency particulate air filter and ultraviolent chambers in conjunction with personal protective equipment are used to reduce aerosols produced in dentistry. The objective of this review is to explore the effectiveness of extra oral vacuum aspirator to decrease number of airborne pathogens, such as the SARS- CoV-2 virus during the dental procedure.
