Dental Apron

Dental aprons are a type of protective garment used in dental clinics and hospitals. They are classified under the supply class "Hospital And Surgical Clothing And Related Special Purpose Items" in the supply group "Medical, Dental, And Veterinary Equipment And Supplies."

Dental aprons are designed to provide a barrier between the dental professional and the patient, protecting both parties from potential contamination and cross-infection. They are typically made of a fluid-resistant material, such as polyethylene or polypropylene, which helps prevent the transmission of fluids, microorganisms, and other contaminants.

These aprons are worn by dental professionals during various dental procedures, including examinations, cleanings, and surgeries. They are typically disposable and come in different sizes to accommodate different body types.

Dental aprons are an essential part of infection control protocols in dental settings, as they help maintain a clean and safe environment for both patients and healthcare providers.
