Guidelines, maternal-infant, dental assessment, COVID-19Abstract
In view of the situation of the COVID-19 pandemic, the following document has been developed by the Latin American Association of Paediatric Dentistry ALOP, in a collaborative and voluntary manner, carrying out the curatorship of the scientific information available up to the date of its elaboration.
The aim of this document is to provide technical guidance to paediatric dentists and dentists who treat mothers and children, specifically pregnant women and babies, to enable them to make informed decisions regarding screening, pre-care assessment and appropriate dental care during the COVID-19 pandemic, optimising the quality of care and minimising the risk of transmission of coronavirus between patients and the dental team carrying out the treatment.
It should be noted that this information is based on the best possible recommendations and can change rapidly, so we urge professionals to follow up on updates to this document. Likewise, many questions will remain unanswered, due to the fact that the articles available are not following the usual protocols for carrying them out, some are based on very low casuistry, others indicate a lack of verification or times that are too fast to achieve reliable results.
