Since the first cases of patients affected by Covid-19 appeared in Cuba in March 2020, specifically in Sancti Spíritus province, dental care has become a health problem for both, patients and professionals from this field; for this reason, on March 24, 2020, José Ángel Portal Miranda, Minister of Public Health, informed that Cuba was reorganizing its medical services versus Covid-19 to avoid an unnecessary flood of people to health institutions and without exposing at risk the lives of more than 11 million inhabitants of the island, he proposed the need to stop dental services, except for emergencies, and to maintain them in isolation places, even though this would imply a high risk.REFERENCES
