Covid has been going on for almost a year.
Most dentists have been open for full services since May 1.
Have you heard anyone get covid at the dentist?  No.

The dentist/hygienist, like almost all healthcare practitioners will likely wear a N95 mask with a faceshield over it.  They may also wear a cotton mask.

Well, if the office is open, then it must be safe. They have to see people all day.

I would say yes. Medical offices have to follow the rules of COVID. I have gone to three dentists in the month

For a while the dentists here were open only for emergencies, but sometime during the summer they opened for routine dental care with extra precautions taken. I missed one cleaning but got the next one on schedule, plus a crown on a tooth that needed it.

Yes, I have been a few times.
