Amidst this global coronavirus (COVID 19) outbreak, it’s important to reiterate the fact that our dental team is well trained in infection prevention protocols (including ones for COVID 19). Please rest assured that we are in close daily monitoring of COVID 19 developments in partnership with our local and state health departments, World Health Organization (WHO), the US Center of Disease Control (CDC).
We want to personally reach out to share that in our office, we strictly adhere to or exceed the CDC guidelines for infection control in dental health care settings, are dedicated to daily protocols of deep disinfection of the entire office, and sterilization of all instruments between patients. Your dental team is also committed to using appropriate protective garb such as gloves, masks, & eyewear to ensure infection control.
Please follow the CDC recommended guidelines in prevention of the spread of any viruses in this cold and flu season:
