OUR RESPONSE TO COVID-19

At Prime Endodontics, the health and wellbeing of our patients has always been our utmost priority. This commitment is unchanged, and we are taking every step necessary to maintain our high standard of care and excellent infection control standards to keep all of our patients safe.

As Australia and the world faces this challenging time, we at Prime Endodontics want to inform all of our patients (past, present, and potential) of the precautions that we are taking to ensure your health and safety, so that you can feel comfortable.

We believe it is critical that we all play a constructive role in supporting both local health officials and the government as they work to contain the COVID-19 virus. We also feel it is important to take a calm and balanced approach, making sensible decisions and focusing our efforts on practical, meaningful actions that prioritise the health and wellbeing of our patients.

Anne, our practice manager, is sending out this text message to every one of our patients the day before they come in for a consultation or procedure:
“In preparation for your appointment at Prime Endodontics with Dr David Figdor tomorrow, can you please confirm that you or anyone you live with have not travelled overseas in the last 2 weeks and you don’t have any symptoms of being unwell. We are screening our patients and thank you for your understanding. Please respond to this text or call me on 9822 1130 if you wish to discuss further.”

This screening procedure ensures that the patients we do see face-to-face are well and healthy, lowering the risk of spreading infection. Furthermore, all of our staff follow strict cleaning, infection control, and hygiene procedures (as we have always done). If you would like information on these measures, please feel free to call us on 9822 1130 and we will be happy to answer any questions.

Last year, a bibliometrics paper was published which analysed the 103 top-cited articles in endodontics. The number of citations attributed to an article is an objective indicator of the impact of the work in the field of endodontics. Dr David Figdor has co-authored three of the top 50 articles cited, with two in the top dozen of the most-cited papers in the field.

The International Endodontic Journal (IEJ) is one of two leading international journals in the field of Endodontics. In a recent paper, the authors sought to identify the top 50 most-cited articles in the 50-year history of the IEJ. The number of citations reflects the significance of the contribution made to the field. All 50 identified articles had each been cited over 100 times, cementing them as classic papers in the field of Endodontics.

It turns out that Dr David Figdor at Prime Endodontics has been a co-author on three of the top 50 papers. Dr Figdor is a co-author on the number one most-cited publication in the IEJ! Adding to that, he is also a co-author on the number five paper. That means Dr David Figdor is a contributor to two of the top five most-cited publications in the 50-year history of this leading journal in Endodontics!

We at Prime Endodontics are proud of his enormous contribution, and it highlights Dr Figdor's expertise in the field.
