We were already practicing most of these measures prior to the dental office closures in mid-March, and they were well received by patients and family members.

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) is central to responding to this threat and a good source of information. More information regarding how to protect yourself can be found on their website.

Be assured your health and safety will continue to be our top priority as this situation develops!
