It is safe to visit dentist if you take precautions against covid and ask to dentist too.
Or do massage chat or video consultation to avoid the visit.

Do understand your fears. But necessary precautions will be taken by the dental professionals. You did not mention the problem faced by your son. If it is an emergency, do consult a Pediatric Dentist nearby.
