∙ 12y ago
OSHA does not say anything specific about shoes in dental offices or elsewhere. OSHA does require covered employers to assess the hazards in the workplace and ensure that appropriate safety equipment is used.
Most dental offices will not involve activities that prevent the use of open toe shoes, except where chemicals are used, as, for example, where the dental x-rays are developed.
