This document is to help patients understand when they should or shouldn’t make a dental appointment.
(As issued by ADA). People have doubts about whether they should continue to visit their dentist during the COVID-19 pandemic. As the authorities are presently recommending dentists close their practices and treat only emergency/urgent care, we have provided guidelines to help patients determine when to consult with their dentist and if their care should be rescheduled.
