Can you get sick from going to the Dentist?

I would say yes if they are not wearing gloves, masks or the tools are not clean enough but you know you can get sick anywhere just from the door knobs of bathrooms anything really. It is always best to just wash your hands a lot and keep them out of your eyes. Not knowing what illness you are referring to it is hard to be specific but if you mean the common cold I would'nt get too worried as you can get this anywhere!!
