Abstract

The routes of transmission of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) still need to be better identified; however, human-to-human transmission is already a reality in many countries. This study aims to gather recommendations from health agencies and studies published in scientific articles related to special procedures for oral and maxillofacial surgeons in the perioperative period of urgency and emergency. The possibility of cross infection by inhalation of particles produced during surgical procedures justifies the study. This study assesses the COVID-19 routes of transmission and the possibility of cross-contamination through droplets of saliva transformed into aerosols. We consider that when the oral and maxillofacial surgeon adopts special procedures in the perioperative period, it may help prevent the virus transmission in both professionals and patients.
