A dental valve device having a disposable turret is disclosed having a valve body having a tip receiving end, a hose receiving end, a lumen formed between the tip receiving end and the hose receiving end, an opening formed in the valve body, and a rotatable valve sealing body adapted to being inserted into the opening, the rotatable valve sealing body having a bore for alignment with the lumen formed between the tip receiving end and the hose receiving end, the bore having a tip receiving end opening and a hose receiving end opening, the rotatable valve sealing body having an outer surface having an indentation formed in the outer surface adjacent to the tip receiving end opening with the indentation having an upper ramp portion, a lower ramp portion, and an end having a tab portion.

Hygiene regulations and social distancing are very effective in blocking short distance infections. During the lockdown, the distance rules can usually be adhered to, but what happens when the actual lockdown is over and the people meet again in a confined space? Then additional effective and efficient protection is essential to stabilize infection rates. Since the viruses are spread by contact and droplet infection, technical devices are required that effectively intervene in the chain of infection and effectively block infection. An effective protection is the respiratory mask as known since 100 years. An alternative to mask is an aerosol protection system for various applications in environment. The protection system consists of adjustable air sucking device and air blowing device in different form factors based on application. The aerosol protection system uses either an air curtain or air shield to prevent the aerosol going from one side of the curtain or shield to the other side.

An article of manufacture for providing a dental droplet extraction device is disclosed. The device is created around a large collection basin having a funnel-like opening at its top. An exit port is located at the bottom of the large collection basin. The exit port is connected to a high-volume dental line to provide negative pressure that suctions all of the aerosolized droplets created within the patient's mouth while receiving treatment. The removed particles may be trapped in a filter located in the dental suction lines.

An alternative device to a mask that blocks a patient's aerosol and avoids contamination of the patient's surrounding environment is described. The device has a flexible arm that holds an aerosol disposal pipe with one side connected to a wall, a bed, or pole attached to a floor. The second side of the flexible arm is attached to a circular or elliptical pipe that covers the face of the patient. The elliptical or circular pipe comprises of two independent moving and rotating halves to create two aerosol sucking planes. The sucking function is provided by sucking fans attached to the two halves of the circular or elliptical pipes or by a remote pump. The sucked aerosol may be filtered and released to the environment or guided to a sink P-Trap or an inlet of sewer.

An oral irrigator handle including a housing and a first fitting, the first fitting including a first fitting inlet in fluid communication with a handle inlet in fluid communication with a fluid source and a first fitting outlet in fluid communication with the first fitting inlet. The handle includes a seal positioned around the first fitting and between the first fitting inlet and the first fitting outlet. A second fitting includes a second fitting inlet in fluid communication with the first fitting outlet and a second fitting outlet in fluid communication with the second fitting inlet. A bottom portion of the second fitting seats on a portion of the first fitting so that the seal engages an interior surface of the second fitting, a flow passage is coupled to the second fitting and in fluid communication with the second fitting outlet.

An oral cavity washing device includes: a body unit including a tank which stores a washing liquid, a pump from which the washing liquid stored in the tank is discharged, and a case formed by joining a plurality of parts to each other so as to accommodate the pump; a tube connected to the body unit so as to make the discharged washing liquid flow through the tube; and a washing unit connected to the tube so as to discharge the washing liquid. The oral cavity washing device includes a seal structure having at least a first seal portion which seals a joint portion between the plurality of parts on an outer shell of the case. With such a configuration, the body unit of the oral cavity washing device can be efficiently washed.

This patent application discloses an alternative to mask that is a patient aerosol protection for various applications in the environment. The patient aerosol protection consists of adjustable air sucking devices in different form factors based on the application. The patient aerosol protection protects against any aerosol released by a patient in the environment.
