Ensuring Your Safety With UV Light at Spaulding Dentistry
At Spaulding Dentistry, we go above and beyond to ensure the health and safety of our patients and staff. One of the ways we’re combatting COVID-19 along with other possible infections is with ultraviolet light. UV light is proven to kill or inactivate microorganisms by destroying nucleic acids and disrupting their DNA, leaving them unable to perform vital cellular functions.
The Air Science company was chosen since they’ve developed and provided high-efficiency products to medical field teams for many years. Their equipment rapidly and safely decontaminates the content’s DNA using high-intensity UVC radiation.
Air Science UV-Box Applications
The Air Science UV-Box™ is a desktop unit that provides easy and effective UV radiation decontamination of personal protective equipment (PPE) such as N95 respirator masks [1], instruments, tools, and materials. High-intensity UV lamps positioned within the cabinet produce short wave ultraviolet light at 254 nm to destroy exposed surface bacteria and viruses, leaving medical equipment free of contamination.
