Post covid dental installation
Mom has to install a tooth.
I saw somewhere that post covid you should avoid dental procedures for 3 months to avoid the risk of mucormycosis. Is it true? Should we delay the installation?
She recovered from covid 50 days ago at home. She was diabetic (now from two weeks her sugar came in control), but hba1c as of now is 7.6. She also took steroids for 7 days (12mg deflazacort per day)

Non surgical procedures can be carried out if she is fit. And tested negative. Surgical procedures can be delayed unless it is an emergency until 10 to 12 weeks from recovery. 12 if she was hospitalized.
