These pathogens include, but are not limited to, hepatitis B (HBV), hepatitis C (HCV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Needlesticks and other sharps-related injuries may expose workers to bloodborne pathogens.
What is the most common route of disease transmission in the dental office?The most common route is through direct contact (touching) of the patient's blood or saliva. Droplet infection occurs through mucosal surfaces of the eyes, nose, and mouth. It can occur when the dental-team member inhales aerosol generated by the dental handpiece or air-water syringe.
What transmission means touching or contact with the patient's blood or saliva?Direct contact infections spread when disease-causing microorganisms pass from the infected person to the healthy person via direct physical contact with blood or body fluids. Examples of direct contact are touching, kissing, sexual contact, contact with oral secretions, or contact with body lesions.
Can Bloodborne pathogens be transmitted indirectly?The Centers for Disease Control (otherwise known as the CDC) states that there is no known risk from exposure to intact skin. Unlike some infectious diseases, bloodborne pathogens are not spread by casual contact such as handshakes, hugging, doorknobs, or use of the same equipment like toilets or water fountains.
