Abstract
A novel human coronavirus – now named severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) with 80% genetic makeup similarity with SARS-CoV-€1 – emerged from Wuhan, China, in late 2019. This new virus is highly infective especially through airborne transmission. Dentistry has been listed as the very-high-risk category in a new report called “Guidance on preparing workplaces for COVID-19” by occupational safety and health act. This literature review aimed at assembling relevant information regarding the risk of coronavirus disease 2019 through aerosol generated dental procedures.
