Abstract  

The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic began at Wuhan in December 2019, and the World Health Organization designated it a public health emergency in 2020 [1-3]. Oral health care services were ignored by the public health organizations in developing nations and it is not an easy task to tackle the inequalities among the communities [4-5]. The purpose of this article is to raise awareness and explore the possible impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on oral health disparities.
