Abstract
This manuscript features the promising findings of a study conducted by Ju et al, who used graphene nanocomposites for air disinfection in dental clinics. Their study demonstrated that, compared with conventional filters, graphene nanocomposites substantially improved air quality and reduced microbial contamination. This manuscript highlights the innovative application of graphene materials, emphasizing their potential to enhance dental clinic environments by minimizing secondary pollution. On the basis of the unique antimicrobial properties of graphene and the original study's rigorous methodology, we recommend using graphene nanocomposites in clinical settings to control airborne infections.
期刊介绍:
The World Journal of Clinical Cases (WJCC) is a high-quality, peer reviewed, open-access journal. The primary task of WJCC is to rapidly publish high-quality original articles, reviews, editorials, and case reports in the field of clinical cases. In order to promote productive academic communication, the peer review process for the WJCC is transparent; to this end, all published manuscripts are accompanied by the anonymized reviewers’ comments as well as the authors’ responses. The primary aims of the WJCC are to improve diagnostic, therapeutic and preventive modalities and the skills of clinicians and to guide clinical practice in clinical cases.
