A big thank you to all of you for ALL of the hard work you have done to make our dental visits safe during this time of COVID-19. I was apprehensive about having my routine dental appointment during this time because I was worried, not merely about catching COVID-19 from you, but the risk of transmitting it to you while you were working on my mouth since I had read that working in my mouth exposes you to whatever contagion is in my mouth and nose. I reviewed the American Dental Association guidelines and spoke with my PCP’s Assistant to learn what procedures you and I should follow. Your office follows the guidelines completely, from having patients wait in their car till you are ready for them and checking their temperature upon arrival to your hygienist being completely protected with mask, shield, eyewear, gloves, surgical garb. The air purification system circulating the air every 15 minutes offered an additional layer of protection for both hygienist and patient. I appreciate Cassie’s hard work in performing a cleaning the old-fashioned way using only dental instruments versus the new methods which release more particles into the air. Though more labor intensive, patient and hygienist benefit in the long run. Thank you for an, as always, excellent exam and cleaning. Stay strong and healthy and safe all of you!
