Dentist - Cambria, CA

1. We are screening all our patient before scheduling them making sure they are free of symptoms, have not been in contact with person who is covid 19 positive and do not have history of traveling to areas of high covid 19 infections. You will be asked those questions over phone before confirming your appointment few days prior, and only if your answers are negative for those questions, we will confirm your appointment. Those questions will be asked again when you are in office for your appointment.

2. We have adjusted our patient scheduling also to make sure we do not have any extra patients in the office and there is enough time between appointments, Reception area furniture has been changed so that we can wipe it with disinfectant every hour.

3. Patients are required to wear masks when they come for their appointment, patients are also advised to wait outside the office if they see somebody standing on reception area until the person leaves. Patients are encouraged to bring their own pens for signing to prevent cross contamination.

4. Once patient walk in, they are required to use hand sanitizer, temperature will be taken, and patients are required to gargle with 1% hydrogen peroxide for 30 seconds.

5. Every room has their own HEPA air purifiers.

6. We have always followed strict infection control protocols but now we have added extra tools to clean air and all the surfaces in the room. In between patient appointments, we are using ozone gas to clean air and using hypochlorous acid to disinfect surfaces which are hard to reach like walls etc. Hopefully, this will address your question. Feel free to reach to us if you have any questions.

Regards,
Dr. Ramandeep Badhan
