Now that restrictions have been lifted regarding the COVID-19 outbreak, we are happy to announce that our office is now open again. Guidelines and procedures have changed and appearances may be a little different than before, but rest assured, we’ve worked hard to provide the safest environment possible to keep our patients and staff protected.

We require that when arriving at the office, patients wait in their cars. We will come out to greet you, record your temperature and show you into the office. Masks are to be worn before entering and you are asked to make use of our available hand sanitizer. Next, a questionnaire and consent form will be completed. You will be shown to your treatment room and asked to use our Listerine/peroxide combination rinse prior to treatment. Following completion of treatment, check out will either be completed at the front desk area or by phone later in the day.

We have equipped the office with clear acrylic sneeze guards, Air Purifier units with HEPA filters and barriers to separate the sterilization area from the main office areas. In addition, high efficiency extra-oral suction units will be arriving soon which will eliminate essentially all of the aerosols generated from our high speed handpieces and hygiene ultrasonic devices.

We also ask that you come alone to the office (excluding special circumstances) to keep waiting room traffic to a minimum. Please leave bags, purses, and cell phones in your car since these items carry high levels of germs and cannot be brought into the treatment rooms.

Welcome back and thank you for your loyalty, friendship and patronage. We appreciate your understanding in these temporarily uncertain times.

Michael Stroppa, DMD
