When did doctors start using latex gloves?
The answer varies throughout individual dental offices but latex gloves began in the early eighties. In 1989 the general rule of thumb was to wear gloves if the dentist expected there to be bleeding during the procedure. Today, frighteningly enough, there are people who still do not follow proper guidelines. But, the dental community has OSHA which regulates and shuts this type of action down. It is required by law to educate every staff member to learn all the proper techniques necessary to ensure health and safety. Patients should watch your health professional, see them wash their hands, and witness them opening sterile instruments. They should wear a mask and a set of fresh gloves, to protect the patient as well as the professional. If the professional must touch an object -- for examples, a pen, or a telephone -- they should remove "used" gloves before touching the object, and replace them with new gloves before continuing the dental procedure. NOTE: Many offices use non-Latex gloves now, since many people have allergies to Latex.
