Please read how we are proceeding with our operations in order to achieve Our Commitment to Your Safety!
We hope this finds you and your family in good health. COVID-19 has been very difficult for all of us. Our community has been through a lot over the last two years and all of us are look forward to resuming our normal habits and routines.
While many things have changed, one thing has remained the same: our commitment to your safety. Many of you have been forced to wait for dental care, and we deeply appreciate your understanding while we kept our office closed to help control the spread of COVID-19.
Your health and well-being continue to be our highest priority, and we are ONLY opening because we have carefully planned and revised our office procedures in an effort to CONTINUE to greatly minimize the risk of infection for our patients and our team members. Our own families are also patients here so you can be assured that we will be taking care of you just as well as we will be taking care of them. Infection control has always been a top priority for our practice. Our infection control processes are made so that when you receive care, it is both safe and comfortable. We follow the 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. You may see some changes when it is time for your next appointment. We made these changes to help protect our patients and staff. For example:
For your peace of mind, the measures we will be taking to continue to provide a safe dental treatment experience include, but are not limited to, the following:
Prior to arriving at the office, a Team Member will call you for Prescreening.
We are proceeding with an abundance of caution, but we want you to feel as confident as we do that any visit you make to our office will be a safe one.
We also realize that many of you have been impacted financially during this outbreak, and we are offering additional solutions to keep dental care affordable for you and your family. To discuss these payment options, schedule an appointment, or ask us any questions you may have about your next visit, please do not hesitate to contact us at 336.570.3882.
Thank you for being our patient! We value your trust and loyalty and look forward to welcoming back our patients, neighbors, and friends.
See you soon,
Dr. Karen and Our Team
