Dust particles vs Dust pieces

Both "dust particles" and "dust pieces" are correct, but they are used in different contexts. "Dust particles" refers to tiny specks of dust, while "dust pieces" might imply larger or more visible parts of dust. They are not interchangeable, as they convey different sizes or forms of dust.
