With the recent news and spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), we know our patients have questions. As dedicated healthcare professionals, we want you to know that we are committed to the health and safety of our patients and staff. Our practice strictly adheres to and exceeds the standards for infection control by wearing personal protective gear, using hospital-grade disinfectants, practicing the latest sterilization protocols, utilizing single-use disposable materials, and more. Every effort we have in place is to ensure the safety of our patients and staff.
To date, our practice remains open to patients seeking oral surgery services, including dental emergencies. Having an oral surgery practice stay open to treat dental emergencies will help reduce the number of patients going to the ER by a considerable amount. This will help the hospitals treat others.
Symptoms of coronavirus are reported as cold or flu-like, with varying degrees of severity. While we do not know everything about this virus to date, individuals who are elderly and/or immunocompromised appear to be the most at risk of a severe infection. To ensure your health and safety, and the health and safety of everyone at our practice, please reschedule your appointment if you or a member of your household has a cough, fever, and/or flu-like symptoms. In addition, please reschedule your appointment if you have traveled to any areas within the past 14 days that are at high risk for contracting the coronavirus.
We thank you in advance and extend our gratitude for your understanding and cooperation. Together, we can help keep everyone as safe and healthy as possible. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our office, and one of our staff members will be more than happy to assist you.
