Whether you want to schedule a dental cleaning, plan restorative care or take care of an emergency, call your dentist’s office to make an appointment and learn about the new safety protocols.

Dental offices have made changes to their procedures for enhanced safety. Ask your dentist how you should prepare for the appointment. While speaking with the dental office, ask if there are steps you should take prior to or on the day of your appointment to comply with new safety protocols.

Dental offices are limiting the number of people in the offices, keeping waiting areas cleared and maintaining social distancing guidelines. As a result, your dental team may ask that you wait in your car or outside the office until the team is ready for you.

As dental offices work to maintain safety during this time, you should be aware of the instructions the dental team provides during your appointment. Teams will be maintaining social distancing whenever possible. Some conversations may be limited during your appointment. Shaking hands or any other physical contact is being limited now to comply with enhanced infection control standards.

Schedule your next appointment or any follow-up needs. Provide your dentist with any feedback on the appointment. Your dentist is working hard to ensure your safety. Schedule an appointment today to #seeyourdentist.
