Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is the most pressing and prevalent health issue worldwide. Globally, it has claimed thousands of lives. The majority of people who are infected suffer mild to moderate illnesses. Periodontal disease management is vital during this period when dentistry is operating below its pre-COVID-19 capacity levels. This is a cross-sectional study conducted among Saudi dental professionals using an online survey. 300 dentists from Riyadh city will be utilized in this study. An online questionnaire was constructed to measure the awareness and effects. The statistical analysis reported that more than half the sample comprised female participants (66.2%), and the majority of participants were with working experience of few than 10 years working as general dentists. 68.9% of them thought COVID-19 could be asymptomatic, and 53.4% think telephonic staging is safe. Manual scaling is thought to have a higher risk of spreading infection. 62.1% possess fumigators in a clinic, 69.4% refrain in peak pandemic from performing non-emergency periodontal cases, and 43.4% thought COVID had affected overall periodontal practice. In the present study, findings revealed that the majority of dental experts believe in precautions, COVID-19 relevance to periodontitis, its complications, and people at higher risks of complications with other diseases. The difference in experience exists in general dentists and specialists on preferred mouth rinse manual scaling as a procedure at risk of spreading infection. COVID-19 affected overall practice according to a majority of participants.

The study aims to investigate the awareness of the relationship between periodontitis and systemic diseases among young dental practitioners working in private dental hospitals of Islamabad and Rawalpindi, Pakistan. This will help in identifying the knowledge gap and accordingly modify the training of house officers in the periodontology department and hence improve their patient management in the future.The cross-sectional study was carried out among 190 house officers after attaining permission from the six respective dental hospitals in twin cities of Pakistan. Written consent was taken, and a questionnaire was filled out by the participants. A score of 1 was given for each correct answer and the level of awareness was categorized as poor (0-3), fair (4-6), and excellent (7-8). Data was entered and analyzed using SSPS version 23. Percentages were calculated for the levels of awareness and each question respectively. Results demonstrated that 61(32.1%) of house officers possessed poor, n=109(57.4%) possessed fair and 20(10.5%) possesses excellent awareness regarding the relationship between periodontitis and systemic disease. About 146(76.8%) house officers were aware of bidirectional relationships whereas only 50(26%) house officers were aware regarding the relation of periodontitis with atherosclerosis. More than half of the house officers showed fair awareness regarding the relation of periodontitis to systemic disease. Further analysis revealed that the majority were not aware of the relation between periodontitis and atherosclerosis. Knowledge about the indication of antibiotics for the treatment of periodontitis in diabetic patients was also lacking.
