The Risk is Real

When an airborne hazard is present, such as SARS-CoV-2, OSHA requires respiratory protection. Wearing a fit tested N95 respirator while performing aerosol generating procedures meets this requirement.

The Problem

Fit Testing can be costly and time consuming. Employees have to travel to a fit testing location or you must hire someone to come to your practice. And, in the current pandemic situation, you might not be able to obtain the respirator you prefer to use. You and your team will need to be fit tested each time there is a change in respirator make, model, style and/or size worn. As a result, dental professionals risk wearing respirators that do not protect them. This can lead to infection transmission and OSHA citations.

The Solution

You can do fit testing yourself. The steps are easy using
