Call us if you need to reschedule your appointment

important office policy updates

Our office’s top priority is the safety of our patients & team. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have updated many office policies to ensure the health and comfort of everyone entering our office. Please read below so you can be prepared for you or your child’s next appointment. If you have any additional questions do not hesitate to call!

COVID-19 Consent Form

What do you need to know prior to coming your next appointment?

We will only permit one responsible party to accompany a young patient, if the patient is comfortable completing the appointment alone we encourage that.

If the patient or anyone in their household has had flu-like symptoms (cough, fever, body aches) or been in contact with a possible or confirmed COVID-19 patient that they reschedule their appointment.

We will require everyone in the office to be wearing a mask (please bring your own masks).

Hand sanitizer must be used upon entry and exit.

Please brush before your appointments as our brushing station is now for hand washing only.

Your comfort, safety and well-being have always been our top priority. Our office follows infection control recommendations made by the American Dental Association (ADA), the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). We follow the activities of these agencies so that we are up-to-date on any new rulings or guidance that may be issued. We do this to make sure that our infection control procedures are current and adhere to each agency’s recommendations. We appreciate your assistance and understanding with following our updated guidelines to ensure safety for all.
