Surgically Clean Air...
it’s like hand sanitizer for the air!

We’re pleased to announce our partnership with Surgically Clean Air, as we know that patient and staff safety is our top priority at Akram Rafla, DMD. These purification systems will help improve indoor infection control, reducing the risk of exposure to certain pathogens.

Since 2010, Surgically Clean Air has been making dental practices safer with the highest-quality, medical-grade air purification systems available. Their premium portable units feature an exclusive six-stage technology that not only filters the air, but actually sterilizes it. They diminish every airborne impurity: viruses, bacteria, bio-aerosols, odors, gases, disinfectants, particulates, molds, and fungi. At the same time, these incredibly quiet purifiers re-energize the air with negative ions that contribute to a healthier, more productive work environment.
