Although they are changing frequently, in response to evidence, we have set this paper against a background of local, national and international standards and recommendations. These include use of patient flow and environment cleaning processes, and standard and enhanced PPE use, as well as other measures put in place to practice safely practice while COVID-19 is still a health threat. Dental professionals are familiar with infection control strategies, but after an outbreak of a highly infective, potentially airborne-transmitted virus, extra protective measures have to be adopted. In this time of emerging evidence resulting in constant change, these measures should continue to be in line with national and local regulations, with vigilance to changes and by reference to Public Health England.
