CDA.ORG (California Dental Association Website) QUICK SUMMARY:
“Quick Summary: Dentists are well-positioned to help detect monkeypox during patient examinations, and dental teams should understand that the risk of transmission in dental practices is low currently. Monkeypox often presents first in the mouth as a rash on the tongue and mucous membranes. Dentists can help detect monkeypox by asking patients if they have any mouth sores and looking for rashes and lesions on the tongue, in the oral cavity and on the corners of the mouth.” – California Dental Association Website (August 17, 2022)
