Patient Safety
Patient and staff safety has always been our top priority. We pay close attention to all CDC and OSHA guidelines in order to practice Dentistry as safely as possible. We are now entering a new era of infection control, post-Covid19, which requires even more attention to detail.
We’re excited to share some of the things we do to keep our facility clean, our air quality excellent, and our instruments sterile.
Improvements to our Safety Standards include:
Additional Staff Training: Our team has been retrained in updated precautions and known COVID19 exposure protocols. We remain up to date as new guidelines are released and will continue to train our staff accordingly.
Air Quality: Additional HEPA air filters have been positioned throughout the office which filter 99.99% of particles from the air
PPE For Staff: All staff members will be wearing enhanced PPE in accordance with CDC and ADA recommendations, including respirator masks, face shields, caps and gowns.
Pre-screening: All patients will be asked a few simple pre-screening questions before their appointment and contact-less temperature will be taken.
Sneeze guards have been installed and all touch-points are being sanitized more frequently.
You can visit our practice with confidence, knowing we take seriously your health and safety!
Masks
Authentic, certified respirator masks have become difficult to find and black market suppliers are making big profits by gouging health care providers. These over-priced, counterfeit and dangerous masks don’t work! We use the innovative Gill Mask with high quality filter material from our known dental supplier to keep everyone safe.
