The survey comprised a total of 3 main sections. The first section included demographic data and diagnostic method for COVID-19 infection. The second section included question about duration of the disease, the general manifestations of the disease, the previous medical history. History of smoking, severity of COVID-19 infection and history of hospitalization. Drug history and treatments for COVID-19. Presence of blood discrepancies during COVID-19 infection. The third section targeted detailed oral manifestations of the disease and questions about the oral hygiene and presence of previous oral lesions.
