Aerosol-generating procedures generate respirable particles for 30-60+ minutes after the patient leaves the chair. Medicair filtration in surgery plus Light Progress UV-C on turnover cuts fallow time and gives the CQC inspector a documented answer.
CQC IPC inspectors now routinely ask dental practices for documented evidence of how aerosol-generating procedure (AGP) risk is controlled. Standard ventilation alone is no longer treated as sufficient — practices need to show:
Three product layers, each with a specific job in the IPC story.
Slim HEPA H13 + UV-C tower for each surgery. ~12 air changes per hour in a typical 18 m² surgery (605 m³/h) — clears HTM 01-05's AGP target. Discreet and quiet enough to run mid-treatment.
Mobile 5-lamp UV-C tower for between-patient turnover — 360° air + surface disinfection, up to 99.9999%. Motion sensor on each side stops the lamps the instant anyone enters.
One IAQ monitor per surgery — CO₂, PM2.5, chemical VOCs and more, with real-time alerts. Builds the air-quality trend record that backs your IPC story.
Includes 4× MedicAir Pro. The shared UV-PENTALIGHT turnover tower and 4× air-quality monitors are quoted alongside, in your currency. Free installation visit and 12-month consumables included.

Cutting fallow time from 60 minutes to 15 in a 4-surgery practice recovers ~3 hours/day of billable chairtime. At an average UDA value of £30, that's ~£18,000/year per surgery.
