Management of Emergency Cases in Endodontics Practice During The Covid-19 Pandemic: A Literature Review

Year 2021, Volume: 48 Issue: 1, 40 - 45, 30.04.2021

Abstract

The aim of this review is to evaluate emergencies and treatment approaches encountered in the endodontics clinic during the Covid-19 epidemic process. For this study, articles on dentistry related to Covid-19 in PubMed and Google Scholar databases were searched. Clinicians should know the infection transmission routes and prevention methods well. In this duration, it is substantial to distinguish which case is urgent and to complete the necessary treatment in a short time. This paper presents useful suggestions for dental emergency practice.
