New York, NY – Making You Smile Cosmetic Dental Studio in Manhattan, and MAXAIR Systems, announced today the successful implementation of MAXAIR ® CAPR® Powered Air Purifying Respirators (PAPRs).
“We chose the MAXAIR PAPR because it provides the highest level of protection for our patients and team while preserving the intimate and caring environment we have built.
It makes a big difference to establish and maintain trust with patients not only so they feel extremely safe, but also so they can see our faces, understand our body language, and hear us clearly.
Both the administrative and clinical teams are using MAXAIR PAPRs and report feeling at ease, safe, and comfortable, conveying further confidence to our patients.” said Dr. Ziad Jalbout, owner of Making You Smile and former Clinical Associate Professor at New York University College of Dentistry.
“Dental practitioners have suffered since the beginning of this terrible pandemic. N95 masks are sweaty and irritating, and comparable PAPR systems available to dentists are bulky, make communication laborious, and hide facial expressions.
MAXAIR is changing that by delivering a PAPR to the market that allows dentists to move freely, communicate effortlessly, remain cool and comfortable throughout the day, and wear loupes. MAXAIR is empowering Making You Smile with the tools necessary to provide the quality care their patients know and love.”said Jake Herbert, Chief Operating Officer of MAXAIR Systems.
The MAXAIR® CAPR’s® wide-angle-lens and lightweight, quality construction is a perfect fit for dental care settings:
- The MAXAIR® CAPR® powered air purifying respirator is HE certified by NIOSH providing ideal protection against COVID-19.
- Dental healthcare professionals are exposed to aerosolized particulates more than any other medical professional because of the immense amount of time spent in close contact with patients.
- Dental healthcare professionals see patients continuously for long shifts necessitating their personal protective equipment (PPE) remain comfortable and effective for the duration of their shift. While it may be reasonable to wear an N95 masks for limited intervals in a medical setting (if properly fit tested), dental professionals are expected to don their PPE for their entire workday.
