As a dental office, we care, not only for you dental health, but for your overall wellness. Because of this, in this blog we will tell you something more about COVID-19 (Corona virus) and some other contagious diseases and the ways how to avoid them. The World Health Organisation (WHO) recommends that you follow these rules to avoid spreading contagious diseases, including the Corona virus:

– Regularly and thoroughly wash your hands with soap and water.

– Maintain at least 1 or 1,5 metre distance between yourself and anyone who is coughing or sneezing.

– When you cough or sneeze, cover your mouth and nose with tissue or your bent elbow. Then dispose of the used tissue immediately.

– Avoid touching eyes, nose and mouth with you hands, because they touch many surfaces and can pick up viruses. Once contaminated, hands can transfer the virus to your eyes, nose or mouth. From there, the virus can enter your body and can make you sick.
