The novel coronavirus disease 2019 (nCOVID-19) transmission through contact with droplets and aerosols generated during dental clinical procedures is expected. Hence, especially for dentists and health-care professionals that perform aerosol-generating procedures are restricted. As a result, severe financial implications being faced by dentists and health-care workers. Like other pandemics and emerging disease outbreaks, nCOVID-19 is creating immense psychosocial disturbances.
