We recognize times have changed. Priorities have shifted. Today, nothing is more important than the health and safety of our staff and patients. With this in mind, we are happy to share the 25 additional steps we are taking to make every visit to our office as safe as possible.
Our goal is to add peace-of-mind to the friendliness and clinical excellence you have come to expect. Of course, this is part of an on-going commitment that will evolve with the times. As always, we welcome the opportunity to answer any of your questions and to address all concerns. Each member of our team has completed additional awareness and prevention programs to enhance their knowledge and preparedness.
Each day, one person will be designated to guide our Commitment to Safety. This includes greeting patients, answering questions, ensuring social distancing, and overall monitoring. No contact temperature checks and a quick set of questions will ensure our team is ready, willing and able to provide safe dental care β every day. We truly do love our patients. However, we will save our hearty welcomes and goodbyes for a later date when things are "back to normal". We enjoy starting every new patient visit by showing off our amazing practice.
These tours will have to wait for your next visit. In the past, you might have seen us at the grocery store in our stylish scrubs. No longer. Now, we change into and out of our newly-cleaned scrubs at the office, every day. In addition to brushing and flossing before your visit, we will provide an Oracare solution to rinse in your mouth for 60 seconds and reduce bacteria.
Minimizing cross-contamination is an important part of our plan. We will ask you to dispose of any outside gloves before you enter. Plain and simple, we are not seeing as many patients. We are allocating more time between visits for coming, going and cleaning. A quick health questionnaire and consent form along with a no-touch temperature check will be completed when you arrive at our office.
