Please see the article below on the safeguards that we are putting in place to protect our patients and dental team.

We are here to serve our patients, and our highest priority is to keep our community safe and healthy. Having the proper dental treatment is one way to make your body healthier. Having untreated dental or oral infections in your mouth can negatively affect your immune system!

We want you to feel more comfortable and are increasing our investment in your health and wellbeing by offering the following safeguards:

• Our office will communicate with you beforehand to ask some screening questions. You will be asked the same questions again when you are in the office and have your temperature taken.
• All patients will be instructed to use hand sanitizer and wear a face mask before and after their dental treatment. We would greatly appreciate it if you can supply your own mask in order to preserve our limited supply of face masks.
• Infection control has always been a top priority in our practice, and we are implementing even more stringent measures both in the operatory and in common areas (such as frequently disinfecting high touch surfaces, installation of plexiglass, removing magazines and children’s books etc.). As well, you will notice that the PPE requirements have increased, and our staff and I will be strict with our requirements.
• Appointments will be managed to allow for social distancing between patients.
• We will minimize people in the reception area by asking you to wait in your cars and we will call you in when we are ready to see you
• All patients will rinse with an antimicrobial mouth rinse at every visit to reduce viral load.
• Medical and military grade HEPA air purifiers are placed in each of the operatories to safely remove 99.9% of airborne particles including pollen, ragweed & other allergens, viruses, germs, dust mites, mold spores & cigarette smoke.
• Our operatories will be temporarily enclosed to avoid any aerosol from spreading to comon areas. Presently, science is unsure if this is necessary but we will keep them in place until we are sure it is safe to take them down.
