COVID-19 Protocols
We hope this letter finds you and your family in good health. Our community has been through a lot over the last few months, and all of us are looking forward to resuming our normal habits and routines. While many things have changed, one thing has remained the same: our commitment to your safety.
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 have always maintained infection control protocols that have exceeded the standard universal precautions. We have always had two steam and pressure sterilizers that are tested weekly by an independent testing company. Our sterilization wraps have always included indicators to ensure complete and proper sterilization each cycle. We have always used a new high level filtration masks for each patient.
We have continue to use AdvantaClear Surface Disinfectant by Hu-Friedy, it is designed to clean and disinfect dental surfaces while working extremely fast and effectively killing a broad spectrum of disease-causing microorganisms in one minute.
AdvantaClear Surface Disinfectant is effective against SARS-CoV-2, the cause of COVID-19. This can be confirmed by EPA LIST N: DISINFECTANTS FOR USE AGAINST SARS-COV-2 [EPA Reg No 70144-4, 70144-5].
In addition, we have installed 2 REME HALO® whole home in-duct air purifier is the next generation of indoor air quality (IAQ) technology and capable of purifying every cubic inch of air that our central air conditioning system reaches. We have now reduce common allergy triggers from particulates such as pollen, mold spores, dander and dust. It has also been thoroughly tested on airborne and surface bacteria & viruses, such as SARS, MRSA, e-coli, and strep, to name a few. Dual ionizers are used to reduce airborne particulates (dust, dander, pollen, mold spores). And the new zinc ions kill 99% of viruses on surfaces.
We look forward to seeing you again and are happy to answer any questions you may have about the steps we take to keep you, and every patient, safe in our practice.
