ACOSTA-OLMOS, David Mauricio et al. Special biosecurity considerations in orthodontics during pandemic (SARS COV-2). CES odontol. [online]. 2020, vol.33, n.2, pp.213-232.  Epub 29-Jul-2021. ISSN 0120-971X.  https://doi.org/10.21615/cesodon.33.2.18.

Periodic control in an Orthodontic treatment allows establishing a good treatment sequence without risks for the patient. Treatment without proper monitoring can lead to irreversible damage. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic facing the world today and the risks in the health area, non-vital and potentially contagious services such as scheduled consultation dental services have been temporarily closed. Taking into account this situation, and that this virus will end up being endemic, it is necessary to establish biosafety protocols that allow reactivating dental practices, and in turn generate guarantees for operators, support staff, patients and the environment of the themselves. In this context, it is of great importance to develop a protocol carried out with expert professionals in orthodontic treatments and in the pandemic, to outline the quality protocol that guarantees a safe environment and minimizes the risks of infection.
