How can we help you?
For your protection, and ours, we have taken the following precautions:
Entering and Exiting
- We are limiting the number of patients allowed in the lobby by making use of our outdoor seating. Thus, following social distancing protocol.
- All scheduling and payments will be made before patient goes to treatment areas, to limit the spread of aerosols.
- After treatment, we will release all patients through our back exit to keep non-treatment areas (lobby, reception, etc) sanitized.
Operatories
- We are following all CDC and OSHA guidelines in sanitizing our treatment areas as well as in sterilizing our dental instruments.
- We have installed air handlers in each treatment room to remove aerosols.
- We have also placed air purifiers in each treatment room to help clean air.
- In addition to each purifier in treatment areas, we have had a UV Air Purifier professionally installed in our central air conditioning system to prevent virus and bacteria from circulating.
Other
Every instrument that is used for dental treatment is either disposable or heat sterilized by Autoclave which is the same procedure used in hospital operating rooms.
Dental instruments are stored in sterilized packages, which are opened in front of the patient.
Dr. Lister's dental practice exceeds the established guidelines of the dental industry for cleanliness, sterilization and infection control.
