In the second phase, the dentists suggested to start taking new patients for dentures, orthodontics, full open surgery, the implantation. Last, you can open a professional dental cleaning, bone grafting and complex dental treatment.

In addition, the reception should be conducted necessarily on the record and after talking on the phone with the Registrar it finds out whether the patient has a cold or cough, could not endure if he recently COVID-19, if he had any contacts with the infected. If he can potentially be a source of infection, then the treatment will do in the end reception and special precautions».
If you leave the limitations Yaremenko fears that people will fall into the hands of private owners who work «underground».
«we in the Association receives a huge amount of complaints of patients and dentists, who tell us that some traders are receiving almost two shifts, and without remedies, without complying with social distancing and so on, — said the doctor. — In fact, patients go at your own risk — they have not get help and try to find her by any means. And clinic, in turn, trying to keep the teams and to pay employees wages».
