Safety Plan

---

Dr. Monte J Smith and his staff are committed to helping the community we serve. We’ve always taken a number of steps in support of our dental team and patients, with increased safety measures and operational updates. And we’ll continue to do all we can to help our patients navigate the comfort level of feeling safe. We understand that as things change it is necessary for us to keep up with continued suggested protocols from the CDA.

• Above standard cleanliness
• Monitoring dental team members.
• Visually monitoring patients when they arrive for their appointment.
• iPads can be used to check-in to update medical history and any changes
• The practice may use tele-health (virtual or phone appointments) in order to limit a patient’s need to physically be in the office.
• Patient masks are no longer required (we will provide masks to any patients that request one and do not have them available).
• Hand sanitizer will be available for their use before and after touching items in the office.
• We are offering emailed receipts for a contactless checkout.
• Air Diffusers with essential oils that kill bacteria are being used throughout the office.
• Special high speed vacuum attachments (HVE) will be used to mitigate aerosols.
