Like the majority of countries in the world, Tunisia struggle against the coronavirus pandemic. Since March 22, 2020, Tunisia has passed to stage 3 of the coronavirus pandemic.Consequently, the Tunisian government has declared total containment until May 4, 2020. The hospital-university of dental clinic of Monastir is a Tunisian public hospital-university institution providing basic care (140000 patients last year) and learning for dental students (1546 students). Due to the characteristics of dental settings, the risk of cross infection may be high between dental practitioners and patients. That's why strict and effective infection control protocols were urgently needed .Thereby, we have sought within our faculty to put in place strategic measures in order to provide optimal care for our patients and the smooth learning of our students while preserving the health of all. The aim of this article is to introduce the essential knowledges about COVID-19 and to provide recommended management protocols for dental practitioners and students in (potentially) affected areas based on our experiences, relevant guidelines and research.
