The increasing incidence of infections which may be transmitted from patient to dentist, and vice-versa, have brought about increased awareness of the cross-infection control procedures necessary to prevent transmission of disease during dental treatment. The wearing of gloves is of primary importance in this respect. The problems associated with glove use are discussed in the light of recent research, and recommendations are made regarding their use.
