I understand the COVID-19 virus has a long incubation period during which carriers of the virus may not show symptoms and still be highly contagious. It is impossible to determine per patient/person.Dental procedures take place with the patient in very close proximity to the service provider. This potentially exposes the patient and the operator to saliva and to coolant water spray, which may spread the disease. The ultra-fine nature of the spray and droplets may linger in the air for minutes to sometimes hours, which can transmit the COVID-19 virus. *

I understand that air travel significantly increases my risk of contracting and transmitting the COVID-19 virus. The NICD recommends social distancing of at least 1 meter for a period of 14 days to anyone who has, and this is not possible with dentistry. *
