Denplugs- Ear Protection for Doctors and Patients

Recommended by the American Dental Association (ADA), noise protection is a significant factor in the dental industry. Denplugs are invented to protect the ear from the damaging noises but still being able to uphold communication. Working for too long in a noisy environment can cause hearing impairement, hypertension, annoyance and sleep deprivation. Fortunately, denplugs deliver solution to dental hearing protection. Wearing Denplugs will help prevent hearing loss for doctors, staff and patients. Limited exposures overtime can result in permanent illness/damage. Wear your Denplugs to prevent the hazard!

Denplugs are designed for dental staff as well as patients. The earplugs protect hearing, still allowing normal conversation. Denplugs help increase focus and reduces anxiety. Most patients don’t like the dentist due to the noise from the high speed drill. Dental earplugs are great for these patients because it reduces the noise which will ease the anxiousness. Sometimes you can be in the dental chair for hours; Denplugs are designed to be comfortable for hours to all day use!! Denplugs are reusable so you can use them at every dental visit. You won’t have to worry about losing them because every pair comes with a lanyard and carrying case!



In 1974, The American Dental Association recommended dental staff to use hearing protection while using noisy instruments in the laboratory. According to recent studies, most dental staff don’t use any hearing protection not knowing the damage it can do to their hearing. Ear protection for dentists is more important to use then patients due to long term exposure to suction and drilling noises. The ratio of the dentist who are using protection to who’s not is very low. It is imperative dentist and staff start wearing earplugs for noise attenuation.
