Materials and Methods: In a standard single-chaired air-conditioned ventilated dental clinic, an electrical dental surgical motor with a high-speed handpiece (Implantmed) cooled with 0.2% fluorescein containing normal saline was used to drill a gypsum block mounted on a phantom head in a supine position. A single operator performed thrice each of the following suction settings: (a) no suction, (b) low-volume suction, Edited by: (c) low-volume +
