Description

Woo-Jung Yang and Ji-Young Yoon compare dental injuries seen in emergency care before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic in South Korea. Their study was published in twenty twenty-three, using records from one hospital's emergency dental center.

The team reviewed three year-long spans and counted one thousand five hundred and forty-four patients in all. Visits fell hard during the pandemic year and partly recovered after. Children aged one to nine were the largest group in every span, and boys and men outnumbered girls and women throughout. Visits often peaked on Saturday nights in spring. The study tracks how the pandemic changed the flow and mix of dental trauma cases, which can help emergency dental services plan staffing.
