Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The transmission of the disease from the dental office to the family of a member of the dental team is an example of dental office-to-community disease transmission, as it involves the spread of the disease from the dental office to people outside of it, who are not patients or part of the dental team. It is not dental team-to-patient transmission, as the disease is not transmitted from the dental team member to a patient. It is also not patient-to-patient transmission, as it does not involve the spread of a disease from one patient to another within the dental office. Lastly, it is not community-to-dental office-to-patient transmission, as there is no mention of the disease being transmitted from the community to the dental office to a patient.
