1 - INTRODUCTION
The Safe-T-Shield
TM
represents the next generation in extraoral
aerosol control for dentists, medical professionals and anyone with
a high exposure to oral vapor.
The Safe-T-Shield provides both a physical barrier to droplet, spray & bio-burden ejection as well
as aerosol evacuation via a patent pending laminar flow air manifold. The device uses a three-part
system to create an H13 level of filtration to capture 99.97% of particles down to .3 um. To maintain
suction and filtration performance, follow the filter replacement schedule on page 21.
While the protection offered by the Safe-T-Shield is higher than any other extraoral system
available, the Safe-T-Shield is intended to be used in conjunction with a sensible PPE regime. The
requirements for such PPE use, including gloves, gowns, and masks will vary by region and need.
Users are cautioned to take every available measure to prevent the spread of aerosol and particulate
contamination.
For user safety and optimal performance, please read this Specification and User Guide thoroughly
prior to use.
Demonstration videos for assembly, use and cleaning are referenced throughout this guide
and may be found here in the “Demonstration Videos” tab on the Safe-T-Shield page at
