Surgical gloves, which are used during surgeries, are usually made to a higher standard and have more precise sizing, better precision and sensitivity, while exam gloves are available as either sterile glovers orf non-sterile gloves. Surgical gloves are always available as sterile gloves. These gloves have multiple purposes in the medical world right from surgical purposes to dental applications. These gloves are also used during commission of crimes due to their thinness and tight fit, which allows dexterity. Latex, which is used in the production of these gloves s being replaced by vinyl, nitrile rubber or neoprene, is widely used, as there is increasing rate of latex allergy among general population.

This is one of the reasons, cost effective environments like hospitals have not replaced latex gloves yet.
