The health of our patients and our community is our number one priority.
As your local dentist and a healthcare professional, it is our responsibility and duty to ensure the health and safety of everyone within our reach. In order to slow the spread of the Coronavirus, we feel that ceasing nonessential dental work is the best decision to make at this time. We want you to know that we are carefully monitoring the situation as the COVID-19 diagnosis continues to evolve, and we are taking all recommendations - including local, state and federal guidelines - very seriously.
While we have always made sanitation and sterilization a priority since day one, we are stepping up our efforts to ensure all office equipment, treatment rooms, waiting rooms, door handles and bathrooms are routinely cleaned and disinfected.
In accordance with the CDC, ADA, State and local dental association recommendations, we have decided to temporarily stop all nonessential or non-emergency dental care. We will remain available for emergency dental care services on a case-by-case basis.
If you have a dental emergency, you will be able to reach us on our practice line. We define a dental emergency as:
- Severe toothaches or pain in the mouth
- Bleeding in the mouth that cannot be stopped
- Trauma or extreme dental injury
- An infection in the gums or teeth
- Bleeding in the mouth that cannot be stopped
Any patient requiring urgent care should contact the office prior to visiting. We ask that all patients take note of the following before coming in for an appointment.
- If you are experience a cough, fever or respiratory symptoms, please call to reschedule your appointment.
- To best observe social distancing, we ask that only people receiving dental care come into the office.
- Before and during your visit, please wash your hands frequently or use hand sanitizer where appropriate.
- Please be aware we are still accepting new patients! Your friends and family are welcome to come to us for their dental needs.
- If you have any concern or questions about an upcoming appointment, please don’t hesitate to give us a call.
- If you are experiencing a dental emergency, please call our practice line.
As always, our team will remain dedicated to ensuring you receive the safest and highest quality of care possible. We are unsure of what these next few weeks will hold but we are confident that we will make it through this together. We look forward to our continual relationship with you.
Thank you for your loyalty and confidence in our care.
