As the coronavirus pandemic continues to evolve, we feel the need to adjust our regular schedule. As currently recommended by the American Dental Association, we will only be seeing emergency, “non elective” patients. While we will still be in the office and providing emergency services, we would appreciate patients calling to reschedule, as we are trying to minimize the number of patients in the physical office. For those patients who need to be seen in the office, please allow only the patient to be in the office, unless a minor needs a parent or caregiver with them. As has been recommended, if patients do not feel well (fever, lingering cough, shortness of breath) they should reschedule. We will be staggering appointments to again limit the number of patients in the office. We do feel it is important to still be a resource for our patients who are having urgent problems or need emergency care. The ADA is recommending we see emergency dental patients to eliminate patients seeking emergency care at hospitals for dental needs.
