What We Are Doing to Protect You
We are striving to bring you the best dental care possible during this post-pandemic period. Our office has instituted several new policies since the COVID-19 epidemic to bring added protection to our staff, our patients and our community. As always, our instruments are sterilized in a steam autoclave that kills all bacteria and viruses as well as bacterial endospores. Anything that cannot be placed in the sterilizer is thoroughly cleaned with a hospital-grade disinfectant that kills bacteria and viruses. We are also using hospital-grade disinfectant to clean common areas and patient treatment rooms.
All of our staff wear personal protective equipment (PPE) including masks, eye protection and gloves during patient care. This is to protect staff as well as patients from disease transmission. Staff and patients are required to stay home if they are not feeling well.
These are just some of the things that we are doing to keep our patients, staff and community healthy. We are following all current recommendations of the ADA, CDC, and OSHA and are doing our best to be informed of any updates to these recommendations. If you have any concerns please feel free to contact our office and we would be happy to assist you.
