Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The pandemic of COVID-19 is considered to be a global public health emergency. Due to its route of transmission via contact with droplets and aerosols, dentists are at high risk of acquiring an infection while treating patients. The impact of coronavirus on the dental community is eminent, and the big challenge is how we can offer dental treatment despite the outbreak. Dental education programs in both under- and postgraduate forms will also suffer from the ramifications of the pandemic. The aim of this Special Issue is to act as a scientific meeting point for all kinds of research that deal with the management of the COVID-19 crisis within the dental community.
