COVID-19: OUR COMMITMENT TO HEALTH AND SAFETY IN THE DENTAL PRACTICE

At our office, It is in our best interest to protect and help our patients in light of COVID-19.
We wanted to update you about the precautions we are taking. It's essential to us that our patients receive the same level of care that they are accustomed to, and that all dental emergencies are handled promptly. Here's what we've been doing in our office to ensure the environment is as safe and hygienic as possible.

SCREENING PATIENTS:

When our patients update their medical histories, we have been actively screening them to learn about any history of travel or signs of infection like cough, fever or shortness of breath.

PROPER SOCIAL DISTANCING:

You can rest assured that we are practicing proper social distancing in our office. We are actively working to make sure that patients are 6 feet or more away from others. We are encouraging patients to come in at their exact appointment time so that no one is waiting in our office.

WASHING HANDS:

All patients and team members are required to perform proper hand hygiene by washing their hands thoroughly.

WEARING PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE):

We have a strict policy to only practice dentistry when the right protective equipment is in place. We always wear surgical masks, eye protection and face shield. Masks are changed between patients. Rest assured, we are fully stocked in dental supplies.

CLEANING AND DISINFECTING:

Throughout the day, we are rigorously cleaning all public areas in our office, including the reception area, bathroom, and operatories. This intensive cleaning includes everything from door handles to chairs.

TAKING TEMPERATURES:

Before performing any dental procedures, we have been taking everyone’s temperature. This is our new routine protocol during assessment of all patients.

We always will put the welfare of our patients first. This means that we're keeping up to date with all announcements from the health regulatory authorities. If you have any questions about our policies during this time, please give us a call @ (905) 884 6600 and we'll be happy to answer any questions you might have.
