Dear Patients, Friends and Neighbors,
We understand the growing concern surrounding COVID-19 (Coronavirus) in our community and globally. As always, the health and safety of our patients and staff is our top priority.
We Are Open
Based on current guidance by the American Dental Association (ADA) and the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) we remain open and ready to provide dental care to our patients.
Patients with Upcoming Appointments
Do Not Come In If You Are Sick Or Have Recently Traveled
If any of the following are true, you MUST reschedule your appointment:
- You have traveled internationally
- You have traveled on a cruise ship
- You have been exposed to (or think you have been exposed to) someone with COVID-19 in the last 14 days
- You are experiencing any of the following symptoms:
- Fever
- Fatigue
- Cough
- Shortness of Breath
We will be screening each patient at check in to identify and limit potential exposure to COVID-19 in our office.
Do Not Arrive Early To Your Appointment
To comply with CDC recommendations on social distancing, please do not show up to your appointment before your scheduled time. This will limit the amount of people in our waiting room.
For Our Higher Risk Patients: Consider Moving Your Appointment
We want to protect our most vulnerable patients, the elderly, and people with serious chronic medical conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and lung disease. Higher-risk patients should consider changing their routine dental work and routine dental cleanings to a later date.
Our Staff is Trained and Our Office is Clean
Our staff always follows and will continue to follow, universal precautions and standard infection control practices as advised by the ADA and the CDC. Also, we are requiring sick employees to stay at home.
We Will Get Through This Together
We will continue to update you with any necessary information. For more information please visit:
