OFFICE
PROTOCOLS

We want you to be prepared for what you might see at your next orthodontic appointment, as things begin to look a bit different.

Pre-screening

Be prepared to complete a COVID-19 screening prior to your appointment. You can download the form below.

Prepare to be flexible!

You may not have the pick of appointment times as the number of patients is limited in the clinic at one time, which means less appointments per day. This is to help keep safe social distancing and a safe space for you.

Brush before you come!

Brushing stations are closed, and you will likely be asked to rinse with a safe, hydrogen peroxide oral rinse at the beginning of your appointment to clean your mouth of germs.

Please wear a mask!

Anyone entering our office must wear a mask or face covering to your appointment. The staff in the office will also be wearing more gear than you normally see. Hand sanitizer will be used upon entrance and exit of the clinic.

No more waiting room

You will be asked to wait in your car and called in when it’s your turn. If a parent is allowed, they will also be subject to all screening measures and a mask must be worn.

Temperature checks

Our patients temperature will be taken before every appointment with a touchless thermometer!
