Thank you for you continued trust in our practice. As with the transmission of any communicable diseases like the cold or flu, you may be exposed to COVID-19 (Coronavirus) at any time or any place. Rest assured that we have always followed the infection control policies as stated by the state and federal regulations. We use universal precautions and the proper PPE to limit the transmissions of all diseases in our office and will continue to do so.
Despite our careful attention to sterilization, disinfection, and the use of personal barriers, there is still a chance that you could be exposed to an illness in our office, just as you might be at your gym, grocery store, or favorite restaurant. Social Distancing nationwide has reduced the transmission of the Coronavirus.
Although we have taken measures to provide social distancing in our practice due to the nature of the procedures we provide, it is not possible to maintain social distancing between the patient, dental assistants and hygienist and sometimes other patients at all times. Exposure to the virus is very unlikely.
