چکیده
مواد و روشها: در این مطالعه که در سال 1400 در دانشکدهی دندانپزشکی اصفهان انجام شد، به پذیرش بخش رادیولوژی دانشکدهی دندانپزشکی اصفهان مراجعه و آمار مراجعان به تفکیک رادیوگرافیهای انجام شده قبل و بعد از شیوع کرونا ( از تاریخ 1/4/1397 تا 31/5/1400) به تفکیک ماه دستهبندی شد و تحلیل آماری توسط آزمون Mann-Whitney صورت گرفت. سطح معنیداری معادل در نظر گرفته شد.
یافتهها : میانگین تعداد در ماه کل مراجعات قبل و بعد از کووید-19، تفاوت معنیداری ندارد (088/0 = P). میانگین تعداد در ماه گرافی داخل دهانی، قبل و بعد از کووید-19، تفاوت معنیداری ندارد (056/0 = P) و میانگین تعداد در ماه گرافی خارج دهانی، قبل و بعد از کووید-19 تفاوت معنیداری ندارد (249/0 = P).
نتیجهگیری: با توجه به نتایج میتوان گفت که اطلاعرسانی به جامعه در خصوص خطرات کووید -19 از طریق مراجعه به مراکز دندانپزشکی، مؤثر نبوده است.

چکیده [English]Introduction: Coronavirus Disease 2019 A newly discovered viral infection in Wuhan, China, has caused pneumonia in other parts of the world .It has been reported that dental centers can have the potential to transmit the disease because patients are exposed to it.Dentists are advised to avoid or minimize operations that can produce droplets or aerosols. Recommendations for dentists indicate that dentists should only accept emergency patients during this illness and avoid other dental treatments. Patients are also advised to refrain from visiting dental centers except in urgent casese. Because the number of people referred to radiology is a sign that patients are going to the dentist, obtaining this information can indicate that people are going to the dental center

According to the Mann-Whitney test, the P for the average number of visits per month before and after COVID-19 is 0.088, which does not show a significant difference. Also according to this test, the P for the average number per month of intraoral X-ray, before and after COVID-19, is equal to 0.056, And the P for the average number per month of extravagant X-rays, before and after COVID-19, is 0.249, in which there is no significant difference.
