COVID-19, betacoronavirus, disinfectionAbstract
Progress has been made in the knowledge of the characteristics and behavior of COVID-19, which should be used by health professionals in order to protect their patients and themselves. The objective of this updated review of the literature was to inform about the disinfectants that can be used to disinfect surfaces and instruments in the dental office. An electronic exploration was carried out to select scientific information in PubMed through the NCBI, Virtual Health Library and in databases SciELO, Redalyc, Dialnet, Latindex, Cochrane Library, LILACS and academic repositories, the information used included review articles, original articles and theses related to SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 and disinfectants during the period January 2019 to January 2021, also considering some relevant articles on disinfection, from previous years.
