COVID-19 Changes


While many things have changed, one thing has remained the same: our commitment to your safety. Infection control has always been a top priority for our practice. We follow the highest standards of infection control recommendations made by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). Because of the most recent pandemic, we have remained up-to-date on any new rulings or guidance that have been issued. For the safety of our patients, families and staff, we have set new protocols and safety measures in our office. Here are some of the changes you may see at your next appointment:

• All patients and staff will have their temperatures taken when entering the office and be asked to complete a COVID-19 prevention checklist
• Cleaning supplies have been upgraded specifically for COVID-19 use
• All surfaces, including door handles, will be sterilized on a frequent basis
• Hand sanitizer, hand washing supplies and masks are available to everyone
• Hepa filters with UV lights are strategically placed in the office for particulate filtering and virus destruction
• Front desk areas have protective plexiglass on countertops 
• Patients will be asked to call our office upon arrival for safe distancing
• The playroom and reception area will be closed
• Scheduling considerations are made for social distancing
• Doctors and staff will be wearing FDA and CDC approved, professional grade masks, face shields, and additional protective wear (PPE)
• We may soon offer teledentistry consultations for those who prefer to stay home

AFTER EVERY STORM COMES A RAINBOW!
