We are excited to welcome patients back into the office! We’ll be reaching out to confirm appointments and to re-book those who had appointments cancelled. If you have a dental emergency, please call us at (780) 791-7737.
We take your health and the health of our staff members seriously. We have a number of systems in place throughout to practice to protect you and staff members. Here are a few of the precautions we take every day.
Pre-screening
We will continue to pre-screen patients using the latest guidance from the Alberta Government and the Alberta Dental Association & College. The initial pre-screening will take place over the phone and you’ll be assessed again when you arrive at the office. We ask that all patients who are feeling sick to please reschedule.
Social distancing
We’ve arranged the schedule to reduce wait times. Please make every effort to arrive on time for your appointment. If you encounter another patient or staff member, please do your best to maintain two metres of space between you at all times.
Office disinfection
High touch surfaces throughout the office are wiped down regularly. Magazines and toys have been removed from the waiting room. Between patients, the consultation room is cleaned and disinfected, and surface barriers are replaced.
Sterilization
All tools are either disposable or thoroughly sterilized between patients. We’re proud to uphold rigorous sterilization procedures at our office.
Air purification
We have medical-grade air purification systems to clean the air in the office. These filtration systems reduce airborne pathogens including viruses and bacteria.
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
All our dental healthcare professionals wear personal protective equipment to protect themselves and patients.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
Thanks,
Aurora Dental Clinic
