RESUMEN

The study showed that washing a gloved hand removed significant amounts of bacteria. If the proper soap or scrub is used, the gloved hand will be free of bacteria. It is suggested that all dental personnel wear gloves to protect themselves and to prevent cross-contamination of other patients.
