The Disposable Dental Mask with Integrated Anti-Fog Eye Visor is an innovative, all-in-one PPE solution that combines a high-filtration surgical mask with a protective eye shield. It is specifically designed for dental professionals and surgeons who require simultaneous protection of the respiratory tract and eyes from aerosols and splatters.
Technical Specifications & Material Science: The product integrates two key components:
- Mask Body: A 3-ply SMS (Spunbond-Meltblown-Spunbond) non-woven fabric construction. The meltblown middle layer provides the bacterial filtration efficiency (BFE > 98%). It typically meets Type IIR standards (splash-resistant).
- Integrated Visor: A clear, rigid PET or polycarbonate shield is permanently attached to the top edge of the mask. This visor is treated with an anti-fog coating and extends upward and outward to cover the eyes without obstructing the peripheral vision needed for procedures.
Additional features include a malleable nose wire for a secure seal, and elastic ear loops or head ties. The entire assembly is lightweight and designed for single-use.
Industry Standards & Compliance: The mask component complies with EN 14683 (Type IIR) or ASTM F2100 (Level 3). The overall device is CE-marked as a Class I medical device.
Application Scenarios: Optimally used during dental procedures that generate aerosols, such as ultrasonic scaling, tooth preparation with high-speed handpieces, and surgical extractions. It is also valuable in general surgery, ENT procedures, and emergency room settings where splash risk is present.
Usage Guidelines: Unfold the mask, place over nose and mouth, secure the nose wire, and fasten the ear loops. Ensure the visor is positioned correctly over the eyes. The device is for single-use only and should be discarded after the procedure or if it becomes soiled or moist. Do not attempt to sterilize or reuse.
Market Value Proposition: This product offers unparalleled convenience and efficiency for healthcare workers. It simplifies donning by combining two essential PPE items into one, saves time, and ensures both the mask and eye protection are always used together—addressing a common compliance gap. For procurement officers, it streamlines inventory. For dental suppliers, it is a premium, procedure-specific consumable that directly addresses the unique occupational hazards of dentistry, supporting a higher price point justified by its integrated functionality and enhanced protection.
