Is model 810R suitable for maternity protection in a dental office? My hygienist needs protection while taking X-rays and use of our CT panorex.

The guideline for radiation protection of the fetal area is to offer twice the standard protection. The standard protection for dental apparel is 0.3 mm lead equivalence. The apron you are inquiring about is 0.5 mm lead equivalence. We do offer a pregnancy apron that is used in medical radiation procedures that offers 1.0 mm lead equivalence. Please see sku: CGL-R, here: https://www.universalmedicalinc.com/care-guard-light-weight-lead-pregnancy-apron.html The pregnancy panel is removable for use of the apron after the baby is born.
