The world is in the grip of a pandemic that has changed how we all live our lives. During this scary situation, many businesses have had to close their stores to reduce Coronavirus’s spread.
Dentists, alongside other healthcare providers, remain open to provide the essential treatments that patients need.
Dental care doesn’t stop for anything, not even a global pandemic. That doesn’t mean that everything carries on as usual; instead, dentists have to adapt to the situation to ensure that every patient receives safe care.
At Pleasant Family Dentistry, we’re deeply committed to providing our patients with the best possible dental treatment. That’s why we’ve put measures in place to ensure your safety during this challenging situation. Read on to find out more about what we’re doing to ensure your dental and overall health are protected.
Coronavirus can live on surfaces for several days, depending on various factors, including the humidity and type of surface. As such, we’re committed to keeping our clinic completely clean and sanitary. A professional cleaning team visits our South Carolina clinic every day to thoroughly clean and disinfect it. They clean every surface, and our team supports them throughout the day by taking extra care and cleaning every instrument and space thoroughly after each patient has left.
Our patients and our valued staff’s safety is our top priority right now, which is why we temperature check every team member before every shift. If they show any virus symptoms, they cannot return to the clinic until they have recovered completely. Our team is receiving exceptional care and support throughout the pandemic, so you can rest assured that they will be back as soon as it is safe.
Every patient will receive a screening questionnaire before their appointment. It will ask you various questions about your physical health and the places you have visited before your appointment. If our expert team deems that you might be at risk of carrying the virus, we will inform you and reschedule your appointment. We appreciate that this can be disappointing, but it’s not only for your health but also for the well-being of our team, your fellow patients, and our community as a whole.
To help us to help you, please be considerate during the pandemic. Here are some simple ways to do your bit to ensure that our vital services are available to everyone who needs them.
The future looks uncertain, but one thing you can rely on is Pleasant Family Dentistry. We remain committed to keeping you and your loved ones healthy and happy all year round.
