From   website A Administrative controls:  the use of administrative measures (i.e., policies and procedures and enforcement measures) to reduce the risk of exposure to pathogenic organisms. Aerosol:  particles of respirable size (<10 碌m) generated by both humans and environmental sources that can remain viable and airborne for extended periods in the indoor environment; commonly generated in dentistry during use of handpieces, ultrasonic scalers, and air/water syringes. Airborne transmission:  a means of spreading infection in which airborne droplet nuclei are inhaled by the susceptible host . Air abrasion:  the application of a mixture of small abrasive particles by air blast to prepare a cavity in a tooth or remove deposits from teeth. Alcohol-based hand rub:  an alcohol-containing preparation designed for application to the hands for reducing the number of viable microorganisms on the hands. In the United States, such prepar...
