The Steps We’re Taking to Keep You Safe

CAS-100

The Covid-19 pandemic has put a focus on air quality in all aspects of our lives, but even more so for the dentists and hygienists around the country. Many contaminants are aerosolized (saliva, bacteria, and viruses) during dental procedures such as crown preparations, preparing tooth-colored fillings, and especially when using ultrasonic scalers.

Capturing aerosol directly from the patient’s mouth is the most effective way to break the chain of infection.

The CAS-100 Air Purifying System is one of the strongest air pressure and air flow systems on the market, and the most effective way to reduce the amount of aerosols and particles in an office environment.

JADE Air Purifier

The JADE Air Purifier made by Surgically Clean Air is a medical-grade air system that is one of the most technologically advanced in the world. The JADE air purification system utilizes multi-stage air purifying technologies that work together to clean, purify and re-energize the indoor air. The multi stage filtration system captures viruses, dust particles, pollen, volatile organic chemicals, mold, allergens, miscellaneous odors, and many other pollutants that are found in the inside air in professional workplaces.
