A cheek retraction or dental device is provided with a member forming an arm extending between and connecting a first retractor and a second retractor. Each retractor defines an internal passage and an aperture. A nasal tube defines another internal passage and an aperture, and the nasal tube extends between and is in fluid communication with the passages of the first and second retractors. A fluid connector to connect the dental device to a remote vacuum source is supported by the arm and in fluid communication with the first and second passages. The apertures of the first and second retractors face towards one another such that aerosols flow from an oral cavity of a patient into the passages of the retractors. The aperture of the nasal tube faces away from the arm such that aerosols flow from a nasal passage of the patient into the passage of the nasal tube.
