New COVID-19 Protocols

As we welcome you back to our office, we want you to feel confident in knowing we’re committed to maintaining a safe environment. We are implementing extra precautions above the standard recommendation to ensure this.

Our office has always followed the highest infection control standards and will continue to monitor the guidelines set forth by CDC, ADA, OSHA, and WA Dept. of Health. Their guidelines are instrumental in keeping you and our staff safe as well as preventing the spread of any infection.

Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with what’s changing, and if you have any questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to call us: 206-626-5400.

Your appointment:

• Before your appointment, we will ask you health screening questions.
• Patient forms and payments can be completed online to limit contact.
• Please do not bring anyone with you to the appointment. Guests will be asked to wait outside the office (exceptions will be made for dependents).
• We ask that there are only two people in the lobby at once, so please arrive at your designated appointment time.
• Please wear a mask or face covering when you arrive at our office, and do not remove it until you are seated in the dental chair.
• We will check your temperature at the door.
• You will be asked to wash your hands or use hand sanitizer upon arrival.
• We will be limiting aerosol producing equipment.

Scheduling:

• We are altering our schedule to reduce the number of patients in the office at once. This will help us social distance and maintain infection control.
• Please keep this in mind when scheduling or rescheduling.
• Our hours of operation remain the same.

Our office:

• All staff will be screened and have their temperature taken daily.
• Office staff will wear a mask at all times.
• Clinical staff will wear personal protective equipment (PPE).
• After every patient, we will thoroughly disinfect the exam room, door handles, surfaces, etc.
• We’re adding more frequent disinfecting cycles.
• We have upgraded our air filtration systems.
• All staff will be trained and continually updated on office protocols.
• Our waiting room will no longer offer magazines, children’s toys and so forth, since those items are difficult to clean and disinfect.
• You will notice that we have altered our waiting room to abide by social distancing guidelines.

Our office is committed to helping you, our staff, and our community stay safe and healthy. As new guidelines develop, we will continue to evolve our office protocols.

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us. We want you to feel informed and confident in your healthcare decisions.
