Infection Protocols Post COVID-19
As a result of COVID-19, we are taking increased safety measures to protect our patients and staff. Below are a few methods we have incorporated into our daily routine to help support the health and safety of our office.
installation Of Aegis Aerosol Vacstations
We now have this installed in every operatory. The Aegis Aerosol Vacstation is a multi-filtration unit that removes up to 99.97% of all airborne particulates and pathogens (down to 0.3um size), decreasing the potential spread of infections and diseases.
Installation of Isolites in each operatory to reduce aerosols and splatter
With the use of Isolite, we are able to evacuate saliva and debris with continuous suction, eliminating splatter or airborne particles which can carry bacteria. By doing this, it lessens bacterial and viral spread throughout our office. Read more here.
Installation of four Air scrubbers and filtration units that destroys virus and bacteria
Tools used in dental offices such as high-speed instruments, cleaners and scalers can all cause saliva and debris to become airborne and remain in the air for hours. By installing these air scubbers and filtration units, we are able to provide surgically clean air throughout our office. Read more here.
Installation of Biosure CDU unit that produces Ozonated water
By installing Biosure CDU, we can assure greater sanitation of our team, our appliances and the surfaces in our office. By utilizing this ozonated water, we are able to improve hygiene and care while also reducing the risk of infections. Learn more here.
Newly developed software/texting system
We now have a new software system that can text patients alerts when we are ready for them, reducing any time spent in our office waiting room. Therefore, all patients can safely wait in their car until their appointment time and do not have to wait in a crowded waiting area.
