Raleigh, NC COVID-19 UPDATE
Dentistry has always kept you safe, and always will. In a world of contagious viruses, your dentist will remain focused on your overall health and well-being. Consider these keys to finding comfort:
- Protective Equipment to Keep You Safe
- Avoid Pain and Complications
- Maximize Your Oral Health Care and Minimize Your Time at the Dentist
In addition to the strict guidelines we have always followed in operatories, we are paying close attention to office areas where social distancing is essential, like reception areas, administrative counters and restrooms, which are closely monitored and disinfected throughout the day.
Examples of safety equipment enhancements:
- Minimized aerosols
- Face shields
- Top-of-the-line masks (N-95)
To minimize your time at the dentist you want to work with your dental team to understand how you can group parts of your treatment together so that you can spend less time in the dental chair yet maximize the benefits of treatment. Doing this will minimize the trips to and from the office as well as the amount of time you spend in the chair. Ask your dental team how.
