What to expect at your next visit.
What we're doing to keep our clients and ourselves safe (current as of March 13th, 2021).
We have made some changes to our infection control policies and office protocols in addition to our standard infection control procedures,
- Please stay in your car and text or call 709-330-4867(GUMS) to let us know you've arrived for your appointment.
- We will complete a COVID-19 screening form over the phone before you enter the building.
- Please bring a mask for entering and leaving the clinic.
- We ask you to sanitize your hands upon entry (and when exiting).
- Your temperature will be taken with a contactless thermometer when you arrive.
- You'll be given a pre-procedural mouthwash before treatment.
- Your hygienist will be wearing more PPE than you're used to. A fresh gown with every client, a face mask, eye protection and possibly a face shield.
- As directed by our governing body; the NL College of Registered Dental Hygienists, we are currently limiting procedures that spray air/water. Professional polishing is on hold (we can remove stain via scaling, so no worries!) and ultrasonic scaling is available when beneficial to health outcomes.
- Appointments may take a little longer than usual.
