    AbstractHealth is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being. The outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in the area of Wuhan, China, has evolved rapidly into a public health crisis and has spread exponentially to other parts of the world.There is strong evidence that this novel coronavirus is similar to coronavirus species found in bats and potentially pangolins, confirming the zoonotic nature of this new cross-species virus-mediated disease.Dentists provide support and management for patients. They proceed in accordance with the current guidelines of the government of each country as well as with the valid standards and preventive, diagnostic and therapeutic procedures for COVID-19.This article mainly focuses on the recommended methods in dental medicine designed to protect patients and healthcare professionals (Tab. 2, Ref. 29). Keywords: coronavirus, COVID-19, dental strategies, dental treatment recommendations.
