Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic changed dental care substantially. The elective procedures were canceled and were limited to the exclusive care of emergencies and dental emergencies to protect the community from contagion by the virus and prevent its spread. Scientific societies worldwide have provided various documents for dental care based on the guidelines given by the World Health Organization, however, the literature on the ethical attitude of the dentist during the pandemic is limited.
