We are happy to reassure our patients that we have three of the Surgically Clean Air cleaners in our office in addition to all of the extra protocols that are in place to protect everyone. Your safety and health is our number 1 priority! Here is some additional information about how the industrial strength air cleaners work and the link to their website:

Surgically Clean Air's medical grade purifiers use multi-stage air purifying technologies that work together to clean, purify and re-energize the indoor air. The six (6) stage filtration system captures dust particles, pollen, volatile organic chemicals (VOCs), gases, mold, allergens, viruses, odors (like formaldehyde and smoke), bio-aerosols, and many other pollutants that are found in inside workspaces. The negative ion generator makes indoor feel more pure, clean and energized to help combat fatigue. For an air purifier to deliver its benefits throughout the indoor space it needs to move large volumes of air through its filtration system effectively without impacting those people that are closest to it or being too loud.

We work with some of the most outstanding dentists in our area and we like to treat them occasionally. Oriana who has been home with her daughter during the last few months delivered Blaqqat Focaccia bread and banana nut bread to our top thirty referring doctors. We have rave reviews from the doctors and their staff and we already know how good these baked goods straight from the heart are, so if you haven’t tried them yet, contact Gilbert at Blaqqat Baked Goods!

Our team is fortunate to have two perio hygienists who have decades of experience between them. Working as a hygienist in a practice that only treats patients with periodontal disease is a challenge. The cases are difficult and it requires skills that these two have dedicated years to mastering.

Lolly sees patients in our office 5 days a week and Cindy is with us every other Friday.

You will find they are both technically excellent, passionate about their profession and love our patients. They possess a wealth of knowledge about dental hygiene, periodontal disease and how to live a healthy lifestyle.

Please join me in thanking Lolly and Cindy for their hard work and dedication!

Our team’s main goal in re-opening our office is to ensure the safety of both our staff and patients, while continuing to provide the highest level of care. This week we have started training on all of the new protocols we will be putting in place in order to attain this goal. We know this is a scary time for everyone and we want to assure you we are doing everything possible to keep you safe and healthy as we start our transition back to an open office. Please feel free to call us with any of your questions or concerns!
