COVID-19: pRECAUTIONS
Our office takes the COVID-19 virus threat seriously. Right now, agencies are working to figure out exact precautions necessary to stop the spread, but we are doing the following:
-
Our waiting room is open now for patients only at limited capacity. Only the patient will be allowed into the suite. Children are allowed one parent during the visit.
-
Temperatures are being taken on all entering the suite. Anyone with an above normal temperature (evaluated by the machine) will not be allowed to enter.
-
Patients are asked to rinse with a hydrogen peroxide rinse, shown in some studies to kill viruses on the surface of oral tissues.
-
UV sterilizer in use to protect all surfaces beyond what spray disinfectants can achieve.
-
Air purification of all the air in the suite to ensure fresh circulating air with 99.7% bacteria and viruses removed.
While not all of these things are proven, we are going beyond the minimum guidelines to ensure everyones comfort and safety.
