As we ease back into things, nothing is more important to us than your health, safety and comfort. We’re doing all we can to ease your mind when you come into our office. These are the additional steps we’re taking to ensure the health and safety of you, our valued patient, and the staff in our office. In addition to our normal standard of care that meets or exceeds OSHA, ADA and CDC guidelines, we’ve implemented the following;

Virtual Waiting Room

When you arrive for your appointment, you can check in from your car. We’ll call you in when ready and you’ll bypass the waiting room, straight to the treatment room.

Social Distancing

A re-imagined waiting room that, ideally, isn’t used as a waiting room, plus a single-patient schedule and no cross-traffic through the office keeps things safely separate.

N95 Masks

Our smiling eyes will greet you when you visit - because our smiles will be covered with N95 masks that meet the U.S. National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health classification.

Face Coverings

All patients and office personnel will wear face coverings at all times in the general spaces of the office facility.

CDC-approved Instrument Sterilization

This is actually not new. Anything that goes in, or near your mouth is thoroughly cleaned with heat and pressure between every use.

Patient Pre-screen

Every patient is given a quick health questionnaire and consent form along with a no-touch temperature check upon arrival.

Oral Antibacterial Mouth Rinse

We’ll provide you with a powerful solution to rinse in your mouth for 60 seconds before your care begins. This will reduce bacteria in your mouth.

Elevated Personal Hygiene

Our office staff is practicing an elevated level of personal hygiene; short hair or worn-up long hair, no long fingernails, no jewelry and no watches for any office staff while in the office.

Daily Team Health Checks

Each day, all of our staff is checked by taking no-contact temperatures and asking a few questions about their health to make sure everyone is willing and able to perform safe, comfortable and effective dental care that day, and every day.

Extended Appointments

We’re offering extra long appointments when needed to save you time and reduce the number of times you need to leave your home. We do our best to perform more dentistry in a single visit, combining treatments and procedures whenever possible.

At-risk Patient Hours

Our patients who are at greater risk, medically-concerned or mature of age can schedule time during our dedicated appointment blocks. We are as concerned for your health as you are, and do everything possible to ease your mind as you come in for your dental appointment.

Teledentistry

We’re able to perform consultations and follow-up visits online so you don’t need to leave your home. This is a great way to find out if you need to come in - without first coming in!

Thorough Cleaning

After each appointment, we super-clean the exam room and all surfaces, sanitizing and disinfecting everything so each patient has a clean safe office visit.

End-of-day Deep Clean

At the end of each day, we do a deep clean and of the entire office, making sure everything gets a top-to-bottom scrub down.

Disposable, Protective Coats and Hats

When needed and appropriate, our staff will add another layer of protection to minimize absorption of airborne particles in the office.

No Office Tours

We’re not allowing any non-essential office traffic, including tours. However, we’re always proud to show off our beautiful office photos in our gallery!

Hospital-grade Hand Sanitation

Each patient that comes into the office is asked to thoroughly disinfect their hands at our sanitizing station before entering the clinical area of the office.

No magazines or activities

If you do spend time in our waiting room, you’ll find it a little bare for now. But maybe a little “you” time isn’t so bad after all.
