Dentist in Richmond, VA

Among the new procedures when you arrive you will notice:

• Our office follows infection control recommendations made by the American Dental Association (ADA), the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). We follow the activities of these agencies so that we are up-to-date on any new rulings or guidance that may be issued. We do this to make sure that our infection control procedures are current and adhere to each agency’s recommendations.
• We have placed medical grade air purifiers that recycle the air quality five times an hour in each operatory.
• We have external oral suction units in each operatory which immediately remove the germs and viruses from the air around the patient’s mouth.
• Our office will communicate with you beforehand to ask some screening questions. You’ll be asked those same questions again when you are in the office
• We have hand sanitizer that we will ask you to use when you enter the office. You will also find some in the reception area and other places in the office for you to use as needed.
• You may see that our waiting room will no longer offer magazines, children’s toys and so forth, since those items are difficult to clean and disinfect.
• Appointments will be managed to allow for social distancing between patients. That might mean that you’re offered fewer options for scheduling your appointment.

We will do our best to allow greater time between patients to reduce waiting times for you, as well as to reduce the number of patients in the reception area at any one time.

Please call our office at 804-328-2200 if you have any further questions. Thank you for being our patient AND your patience. We value your trust and loyalty.
