Enhanced Safety Measures
When you return to Benton Family Dental, you may note things look different from your previous visits. Enhanced safety measures and modifications have been made with your health, safety, and comfort in mind.
Dentists have a long history on the front lines of combating the spread of disease, and we are staying up to date on the latest infection control recommendations made by OSHA, CDC, and the ADA. While this information may be new to you, it is extremely familiar to us.
Infection Prevention
At your next visit, you will see our dedication to infection control firsthand. Some of the changes include:
- Health screenings before your visit and when you arrive on site
- Adjusted seating layout in the waiting room to accommodate social distancing and the removal of magazines, toys, and communal items to reduce the virus’s risk
- Increased cleaning and disinfection of communal areas and treatment rooms
- A higher level of personal protection equipment used by our team
- The use of HEPA air filtration, air suction devices, and increased airflow throughout the office to reduce the potential for aerosol transmission
