Your Safety as a Dental Patient During the COVID-19 Pandemic
WHAT WE WILL BE DOING TO KEEP YOU SAFE
​
​
Our office is doing everything possible to make your dental visit as safe as possible. Many of these protocols occur behind-the-scenes and are always standard and routine. In addition to these strict routines, we would like to highlight additional protocols that have been recently implemented to reduce the risk of COVID-19:
​
-
All office staff will be using virus-filtering N95 masks under our procedure masks, eye-wear, faceshields and dedicated scrubs.
-
All surfaces in the dental operatories and common area will be regularly cleaned with a medical-grade disinfectant that eliminates viruses.
-
We are fogging the office using hypochlorous acid in the morning, during lunch and in the evening. Fogging with electrolyzed water has been proven to be more effective and safer than bleach and peroxide products in broad spectrum room disinfection. Please visit www.hypochlorousacid.com to learn more about it.
-
We have installed medical grade air purification units throughout the office to remove 99.9% of particles down to 0.1 microns.
-
We will be taking a temporal temperature scan on all patients and staff when they enter the office. Anyone with a temperature greater than 100.4 degrees will be sent home.
-
In addition, patients will be screened for symptoms of infection and for travel history during confirmation calls before their appointments.
-
We will be practicing social distancing in our office to limit patient interaction. We are asking that only those patients being seen come to the office.
-
As always, all instruments or tools are either disposable or sterilized adhering to the standard ADA infection control guidelines.
-
We’ve studied the best practices outlined by ADA, CDA, CDC, WHO, and OSHA and are using that information to safeguard our patients and staff.
​​
Your health and safety are our primary concerns. As always, we are working diligently to maintain your confidence in our dental team and we appreciate your trust in us.
Please call our office at 925-846-6308 with any questions. Dr. Tran and staff.
