You need to visit a dentist
Or you need totake a pain killer which can subside the pai for few hrs only...
Even in covid you need not worry to visit a dentist if the clinic is following all protocols to see you
Such as your temp check
Spo2
Ppe kits to operate on you
You are absolutely safe ...
Its just a myth circulating around saying dentist office isnt safe ...
We have handled even nore dangerous situations like h1n1..hiv..hbv...which are even more dangerous than covid 19...
Logically speaking have you observed any clusters of covid in dentist offices across the globe...look in US also...you dont see any clusters reported ....cos webare following all the strict protocols to treat our patients...
Btw covid sumtomatic patients will.never visit dentist as in they would first check themselves in nearest fever clinics
Hence we looking into positive cases are almost nill....and we take care all individuals with utmost care presuming they are positive by following all sops...
Hence pls visit a nearest dentist rather delaying it ...
Next Steps
visit a dentist
Health Tips
