Use of ATP bioluminescence to survey the contamination of dental goggles in surgical removal of impacted mandibular third molars

The importance of protecting the eyes from infectious agents in patients’ blood and saliva during dental surgery has long been known, but the global COVID-19 pandemic has made this even more important. The use of ATP bioluminescence to investigate the contamination of dental goggles during the surgi...
