CURRENTLY OPEN FOR ALL DENTAL SERVICES dentist santa fe new mexico

Dear Patients: 

We hope this letter finds you and your family in good health. Our community has been through a lot over  the last few months, and all of us are looking forward to resuming our normal habits and routines. While  many things have changed, one thing has remained the same: our commitment to your safety. 

Infection control has always been a top priority for our practice and you may have seen this during your  visits to our office. Our infection control processes are made so that when you receive care, it’s both safe  and comfortable. We want to tell you about the infection control procedures we follow in our practice to  keep patients and staff safe. 

Our office follows infection control recommendations made by the American Dental Association (ADA),  the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Occupational Safety and Health  Administration (OSHA). We follow the activities of these agencies so that we are up-to-date on any new  rulings or guidance that may be issued. We do this to make sure that our infection control procedures are  current and adhere to each agencies’ recommendations. 

You may see some changes when it is time for your next appointment. We made these changes to help  protect our patients and staff. For example: 

• Our office will communicate with you beforehand to ask some screening questions. You’ll be  asked those same questions again when you are in the office. 

• We have hand sanitizer that we will ask you to use when you enter the office. You will also find  some in the reception area and other places in the office for you to use as needed. • You may see that our waiting room will no longer offer magazines, children’s toys and so forth,  since those items are difficult to clean and disinfect.  

• Appointments will be managed to allow for social distancing between patients. That might mean  that you’re offered fewer options for scheduling your appointment. 

• We will do our best to allow greater time between patients to reduce waiting times for you, as well  as to reduce the number of patients in the reception area at any one time. 

We look forward to seeing you again and are happy to answer any questions you may have about the  steps we take to keep you, and every patient, safe in our practice. To make an appointment, please call  our office at (505) 557-4000 or visit our website at www.PlazaDentistrySF.com .  

Thank you for being our patient. We value your trust and loyalty and look forward to welcoming back our  patients, neighbors and friends. 

Sincerely, 

Dr. E and the Plaza Dentistry Team dentist santa fe new mexico
