News-Medical
Leading research at Newcastle University has been used to shape how dentistry can be carried out safely during the COVID-19 pandemic by mitigating the risks of dental aerosols.
It is well known that coronavirus can spread in airborne particles, moving around rooms to infect people, and this has been a major consideration when looking into patient and clinician safety.

There's a helmet for dentist appointments that blocks 99.6% of COVID-19 air droplets

Venturing outside your home is an inherently risky endeavor these days. But perhaps no necessary trip inspires more anxiety right now than your routine visit to the dentist.
Not only do you need to take off your mask in a room with a relative stranger, but you also need to open your mouth and keep it open for extended periods of time, all while someone works mere inches from your face. Going to the dentist is an essential aspect of good healthcare and hygiene. But in the time of coronavirus, it is an inherent truth that both patients and practitioners are at risk of transmitting infections to one another via airborne droplets.

The real dangers of mask mouth
Express Dentist
In late 2019, a novel coronavirus was identified in China and rapidly spread throughout the world. The new virus was named SARS-CoV-2 and the disease it caused was named COVID-19. It quickly became apparent that wearing face masks could help prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus and other respiratory infections. Throughout 2020, people around the world were encouraged to wear a cloth face mask to prevent infection. Those at higher risk, such as healthcare workers, have been advised to wear surgical masks or N95 respirator masks.

Face shields protect dental heroes as they protect our smiles
Dentistry Today
While it may be harder to see each other’s smiles all the time these days, dental care is still viewed as necessary during the COVID-19 pandemic. As noted by ADA past president Chad P. Gehani, DDS, “Oral health is integral to overall health — staying well depends on having access to health care, which includes dental treatment.”

.PRACTICE MANAGEMENT
Reach and influence your ideal patients
Inside Dentistry
Social media has become an integral part of our daily lives. People from all generations, young and old, use their social media streams to consume content, communicate with society, and even generate revenue as a source of income. However, only recently has social media become more commonplace in the fields of medicine and dentistry. In particular, within the past few years, Instagram has become an essential resource for dental practice owners as a marketing tool, and it appears to be here to stay.

How will you finance your next practice acquisition?
Dentistry IQ
As you probably already know, the major dental lenders that finance start-ups and acquisitions do not necessarily have the same appetite for financing dentists who own multiple practices. Some lenders may commit capital only if you (the dentist) work in each practice or may commit only up to a certain number of locations. Banks have parameters for what kind of dental ventures they will fund, and which ones are deemed too risky for their own taste.
