Hypoallergenic gloves have been introduced in response to the growing problems of occupationally acquired hand dermatitis. Such labelling can, however, be misleading and some gloves contain measurable allergen levels. Hypoallergenic gloves containing natural rubber latex will not address the problem of individuals suffering from latex allergy and their inappropriate use may provoke a potentially life threatening reaction. Regulatory authorities must ensure that manufacturers provide adequate labelling for gloves, with the appropriate warning about their allergen content. Dental health care workers must become more knowledgeable about gloves and staff should be given appropriate advice about the risks of latex sensitisation.
为应对职业性手部皮炎问题日益严重的情况，低敏手套应运而生。然而，这样的标签可能会产生误导，一些手套含有可测量的过敏原水平。含有天然橡胶乳胶的低敏手套无法解决乳胶过敏个体的问题，其不当使用可能引发潜在的危及生命的反应。监管机构必须确保制造商为手套提供充分的标签，并就其过敏原含量给出适当警告。牙科保健工作者必须对手套有更多了解，并且应该向工作人员提供关于乳胶致敏风险的适当建议。
