The World Health Organization (WHO) recently came out with recommendation to delay routine dental care although they acknowledge that there is no current data on the spread of coronavirus from the dentist's office.
The American Dental Association responded that maintaining oral health and treating oral disease is extremely important in systemic health. One thing to consider is the WHO recommendation is worldwide and fortunately most dental offices in the U.S. have high infection control standards compared to other areas of the world and are often safer than other public buildings.
I urge you not to delay in dental visits as the risks of progressive disease is high.

The American Dental Association (ADA) respectfully yet strongly disagrees with the World Health Organization’s (WHO) recommendation to delay “routine” dental care in certain situations due to COVID-19.

Happy Saturday and Happy early Mother’s Day!

We want to thank everyone for all of your patience. We appreciate your kindness as well. We are finalizing our PPE supplies and re-opening protocols and will be opening for regular patient care on Monday May 18th! We are diligently working on finalizing implementation of the new CDC, OSHA and ADA guidelines in coordination with our staff. There will be a new process of how we see patients, but we are going to be very happy to begin seeing you all again.

In the meantime, we hope everyone is staying safe and enjoying some sunshine. We are still seeing emergencies at this time. You can call the office (505-881-8441) for Dr. McMenemy’s cell phone numbers and to hear the most up to date information.

Remember to brush and floss those teeth, as well as wash your hands! 😊
