making dental care safe

kiwi owned,by a dentist, for dentists to create safe environments for our staff, patients and ourselves in the POST-Covid19 Environment.

Advanced PPE / Ventilation All-in-One

All of us, as dentists have been trained in Universal Precautions, which were introduced after HIV. It changed Dentistry the same way Covid-19 is changing dental care now. As a practising dentist for 22 years, and with a background in forensic odontology, I now see my dental friends being thrust into unfamiliar territory of Advanced PPE & considering safe negative pressure surgeries. Because of many years involved in forensic dentistry, I have experienced providing care in these situations and that is why I ultimately decided to launch respire.co.nz, an all-in-one PPE Distributor & Mechanical Ventilation Design / Implementation Service.

Safe Dental Care - PostCovid-19

Protecting Clinicians, Staff & Patients

Aerosol Protection

Reusable Elastometric & PAPR

Global Supply shortage and quality control have made disposable N95 Masks difficult to get & overpriced/dodgy. The literature does indeed support the use of Half/Full Face Reusable Respirators which can provide higher levels of Respiratory protection such as P3/P100.
For absolute protection, or those Clinicians with Medical Problems, Full Hooded Powered Air Flow units provide the ultimate respiratory saftey/isolation.

Disposable PPE

Gowns, Booties, Full Suits

The day and age of Hospital Scrubs only is over. Consultations being low risk can occur with lightweight Preparation gowns worn over your everyday scrubs. For all aerosol based procedures though, assure your patients and yourselves with the use of full-suits, with moisture protection and simplicity at a cost level that is maintainable.
