Abstract
Objective: To report a clinical case of dental urgency during the pandemic period due to COVID-19. Details of the case: A 55-year-old female patient sought care at a Dental Clinic complaining: “my front tooth fell”. Before the appointment, a questionnaire was carried out regarding the possible contamination by the new coronavirus via telephone, and embroidering in order to conclude whether the patient's case was classified as emergency care. Since the patient really needed care, an appointment was made. Clinically, the patient had a fractured crown from unit 11, where a fiberglass pin and provisional crown cementation were performed in a single session. The dental surgeon responsible for the care followed all the precautionary guidelines recommended by the Health Organs. Final considerations: At this moment it is up to the discernment to perform dental procedures safely, given the potential for infection in the saliva and the exuberant formation of aerosols from the dental procedures.
