We have always used the best PPE protocol and infection control techniques in our dental office as mandated by our profession even before this pandemic. Since we returned to practice in June, we have used a heightened protocol for the safety of our staff, our office, and our patients. However, the most important tool we have to fight COVID is patient screening. We DO NOT treat COVID positive patients in our office or patients who are suspect of coming into contact with COVID.
Patients are screened twice by our staff before they are allowed to enter our building, screened again by our staff upon arrival and screened again by their attending dentist before they even enter any treatment area. We screen our staff and dentists twice daily and monitor our health throughout the day. It is SAFE to go to the dentist. Please DO NOT neglect your oral health. We are continuing to provide ALL dental care including regular exams and cleanings. Call Amherstburg Dental at 519 736-4073 to schedule your appointment today.
We NOW PARTICIPATE in the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP).
Until the Government fixes all it's hiccups, we will be participating in a limited fashion for now.
But at least it's a step forward to helping all Canadians with this new program while also being fair to our existing patients.
The goal of this program is to provide dental care to ALL patients in Canada who do not have dental insurance.
