Thrive! Produce Less Aerosol, Deliver Safer Therapy

Continuing education with George K. Merijohn, DDS

A paradigm-shifting seminar for dental professionals using high-speed handpieces, power scalers, air polishers, and periodontal curettes


You use PPE and have administrative and engineering controls in place to help reduce the spread of contaminated aerosol.

You also follow manufacturers recommendations for dental unit waterline (DUWL) disinfection and although these procedures can help reduce microbial volume, the evidence is clear: they do not eliminate DUWL biofilm and therefore, cannot eliminate its risk of disease transmission.

The uncomfortable truth:  these measures are not fully protective and do not eliminate infection risk, especially for dental team members and patients who are more susceptible, such as the immunocompromised and those who are considered elderly.

Although these methods can help lessen infection spread from aerosol-generating dental procedures, the most effective strategy for infection protection includes producing less aerosol in the first place.

However, this does not mean we must stop using aerosol-generating devices such as rotary handpieces, power scalers, and air polishers.

We just have to know the facts and practice smarter!

Attend this seminar and learn what leading-edge practices do to produce less aerosol, practice safer dentistry, and give their practices a key competitive edge.

This info-packed program will also show you how dentistry can close the gap in providing care for underserved and vulnerable populations, including people who are homebound, and residents in assisted living, memory care and skilled nursing facilities.

Discover the steps you can immediately implement to create safer workplaces, attract dental team members focused on quality care, exceed patient expectations, increase referrals from happy patients, and thrive!

What you learn:

  • Aerosol-reduced dental hygiene therapy
  • Aerosol-reduced rotary instrumentation
  • Practical 3-way syringe spray substitutions
  • Leading edge strategies for practice promotion and positioning
