IABDM Protect Protocol Recommendations
The IABDM’s PROTECT Protocol for safe amalgam removal is presented as a set of recommendations and licensed practitioners must exercise their own judgment concerning the specific treatment options to utilize in their practices. The Protect Protocol encourages dentists to be OSHA compliant, which is required of any employer whose employees wear a respirator.
Operatory: Oral Aerosol Vacuum & Amalgam Separator
The VANGUARD Mobile 3 has an activated carbon filter which enables the system to be used for the PROTECT Protocol to capture harmful mercury vapors and mercury particulate that are released during the removal of amalgam fillings. As contaminated air passes through the VANGUARD Mobile 3, the activated carbon, and HEPA® Filter work in conjunction to capture ultra fine air borne particles and microorganisms, including dust, smoke, allergens, virus, bacteria, mold, gasses, odors, and VOCs, as well as mercury vapors and particulate matter.
