SO Fogorv Sz. 1994 Dec;87(12):363-7. Unique Identifier : AIDSLINE MED/95137116 AB The resistance and durability of operating rubber gloves (PALMA) during different types of dental treatment were investigated. Six percent of the rubber gloves were found to be defective. One pair of gloves could be used 2.15 times on average. The vulnerability of the gloves increased after repeated sterilizations. The results suggest that the use of disposable gloves should be preferred in the daily dental practice.
