Keywords: | long-COVID; COVID-19 recovered; prolonged COVID symptoms; COVID-19 dental; post-COVID-19 syndrome | Issue Date: | 12-May-2021 | Publisher: | MDPI | Serial title, monograph or event: | International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health | Volume: | 18 | Issue: | 10 | Abstract: | The available data regarding the short and long-term consequences of COVID-19 is still insufficient. This narrative review aims to provide information on the prolonged COVID-19 symptoms in recovered patients and their implications during dental management. Additionally, this manuscript highlights the oral manifestations of COVID-19 and its management. A systematic search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library and Web of Science databases, WHO and CDC websites, and grey literature was searched through Google Scholar. Clinical articles (clinical trials, case-reports, cohort, and cross-sectional studies) were included, reporting prolonged post-COVID-19 symptoms. Although COVID-19 is an infectious disease primarily affecting the lungs, its multi-organ involvement is responsible for several prolonged symptoms, including oral implications. In recovered patients with prolonged COVID-19 symptoms, considerations for providing dental treatment has to be made as they can present with assortment of symptoms. These prolonged post-COVID-19 symptoms can affect the delivery of the required dental treatment. Hence, the recommendations proposed in this narrative review can be a useful starting point to aid dental teams providing adequate care for such recovered patients. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/104636 | ISSN: | 1660-4601 | DOI: | 10.3390/ijerph18105131 | Rights: | openAccess |
