Dental patients are high-risk patients relative to their potential to transmit aswell as acquire an infectious
disease. An equal concern has been exhibited forcross-contamination and disease transmission from patient
to patient. The constant dangers of cross-contamination in dental practice among patients,
dentists, and
ancillary staff have been pointed out by Murray and Slack; theyreported the possibility of absorbent cotton
pledgets, air syringes, glass slabs, andhand towels acting as sources of contamination (Williams-Wiles and
Vieira, 2019).
The Centers for Disease Controland Prevention (CDC), in its infection control guidelines, indicated that
dentalimpressions are potential sources of cross-contamination and should
be handledin a manner that
prevents exposure to practitioners, patients, and the environment.Based on the
corroboration of data and
regulation confined to the province, appreciative standards of Dental Infection Control and Occupational

Safety mustbe followed by the dental team for patient and dental healthcare safety. Initiallythe dentistry was
routinely done without protective gears but after 1991 dental personnel was required to wear gloves, masks,
gown, and protective eye. Dentistry is one of the most exposed professions to respiratory diseases e.g. covid-
19 caused by patient exposure to aim is to control infections (Villani et al., 2020). The pathogenic
microorganisms or transmitted to the dentist or laboratory staff via occupational exposure (Cebriá-Mendoza
et al., 2019)
The final results of the study showed that alginate transmits most types of bacteria from the patient's mouth
to the impression. It was found that the mosttransmitted bacteria through alginate
are Streptococcus and
Moraxella. It shouldbe noted that some bacteria were transmitted in most patients, but they did notgrow in
the culture media of other patients. Patients with systemic diseases, such as diabetics, were observed to have
more types of pathogenic bacteria, which arealso transmitted through the alginate impression such as
Klebsiella, while a greater transmission of
Streptococcus and
Moraxella was observed in smokers, the age
groups did not show a significant difference in the presence andtransmission
of bacteria as shown in all
tables.
