| Abstract: | Around the world, various reports have brought the focus on the vulnerability of healthcare professionals in the dentistry. Dental professionals are more prone to the catching the virus during an outbreak like this as their work exposes them to aerosols and droplets from the patient. The need to provide the people actively involved in providing dental care with appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPEs) is evident. An interview schedule was developed and through random sampling method, 50 dentist professionals were interviewed for assessment of needs. The statistical findings from the study indicate the perception of the protective wear from the wearer’s interpretations. It was observed that the pandemic is generating a risk to the environment with rise of disposable PPEs. Thus, the PPEs developed for the dental professionals were made from anti-corona fabrics/fabrics with anti-viral finishes that can be home laundered and used up to 30 washes. The PPE developed promotes a feeling of well-being and has the potential for a multi-disciplinary functional approach. The designed protective wear met the functional, technical and aesthetic concerns of the wearer. |
