May 13, 2021 – Patient Update:
To our patient family,
Patient and team health and safety has always been taken very seriously at our dental practice. In addition to the health and safety measures we employed in our office previously, we are encouraging our employees to stay home if they are not feeling well or have been possibly exposed to someone who is ill. We are asking our patients to do the same and please call to reschedule your appointment if you or a family member have any flu- or cold-like symptoms (i.e. fever, cough, sore throat, shortness of breath, etc.).
We will continue to use the CDC- and OSHA-mandated cleaning and disinfection protocols in our treatment areas, including utilizing a bactericidal, viricidal, fungicidal and tuberculocidal disinfectant that will kill the coronavirus.
We encourage our patients to wear masks while in our office building.
Thank you for your cooperation. We look forward to seeing you soon!
