Study Summary
This trial will help researchers understand how effective mouth rinses and evacuation units are in preventing the spread of germs during dental procedures that create aerosols (fine sprays of water and other liquids). The study will also help researchers understand the risks that dental practitioners face when performing these procedures.

5Patient Review
I have had several positive experiences at Stephens and Gatewood, so I decided to return for a cavity filling. Dr. Glick was my dentist this time, and I was so pleased with his manner. He explained the procedure beforehand, which put me at ease, and then he did a great job with the filling itself. He was quick and thorough, and I would recommend him to anyone.
