  • What changes should you expect during your dental procedure?

    1.   Our staff will be wearing additional protective equipment such as

      • N-95 masks that filters air in and out.

      • a plastic face shield during dental procedures (also changed per patient)

      • a cleaned smock or white coat (changed between patients)

    2. During your cleaning or dental procedure we are now using something called Dry Shield, which is a special piece of equipment that incorporates high volume intraoral suction to eliminate any aerosols as a result of the dental procedure (click here to see Dry Shield)
