Air and Mercury Filtration

Advanced Air and Mercury Filtration at Pearl District Dental

Ensuring a safe and healthy environment in dental settings is vital for both patients and dental professionals. Pearl District Dental is committed to high air quality standards using state-of-the-art filtration systems that effectively remove mercury vapor and airborne particles generated during dental procedures. These filtration systems are designed to comply with safety regulations and enhance patient comfort, particularly during procedures involving amalgam removal or high-speed equipment.

Mercury Vapor Control for Safety

Mercury exposure, often from amalgam fillings, is a known concern in dentistry. When dental procedures involve removing or manipulating amalgam, small amounts of mercury vapor may be emitted. To tackle this, we utilize air-cleaning systems with advanced silver nanoparticle technology. This technology traps and filters mercury vapor, reducing its concentration in the air by up to 95%. Our high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters complement these systems, ensuring that mercury vapor and delicate particulate matter are effectively removed from the environment.

High-Quality Air Purification and Filtration

High-speed instruments, lasers, and air-abrasive tools in dental offices generate particles and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that impact indoor air quality. To address this, Pearl District Dental operates high-capacity air purifiers continuously throughout the day to eliminate PM2.5 and PM10 particles, VOCs, and microbial agents, creating a healthier space for every procedure. Our purifiers and robust ventilation keep our treatment rooms safe and comfortable, making Pearl District Dental a trusted dental office in Portland, OR, that patients rely on for quality care in Portland, OR.

Enhanced Safety Measures with Comprehensive Ventilation

Adequate ventilation is critical to maintaining air quality standards, especially with materials that release small particles and vapors. Pearl District Dental employs central and natural ventilation strategies, such as double cross ventilation, which has proven effective in reducing airborne contaminants. Our approach ensures that pollutants are continually removed, maintaining a fresh and safe environment.
