What to expect at your next dentist visit

Wondering what to expect when coming back to the dentist? The Illinois State Dental Society, along with the Illinois Department of Public Health, have recommended that oral health providers resume routine oral and dental care. In fact, resuming your preventative oral care appointments will improve your overall health and immunity, so now is the time to book those appointments.

We made the following updates to our process for your total health and safety: 

· We will communicate with you before your appointment to ask a few COVID screening questions. You’ll be asked those same questions again when you are in the office.

· As soon as you enter the office, you’ll be asked to use our hand sanitizer. You will also find some in the reception area and throughout the office for you to use as needed.

· To protect our patients, all magazines and toys have been removed. 

· We’re scheduling appointments to allow for effective social distancing between patients while reducing patient wait time.  

When you arrive:
· Call the office when you arrive in the parking lot. We will send you a text when we are ready for your appointment.

· We require a mask to be worn at all times except during your scheduled procedure. 

We look forward to seeing you again and are happy to answer any questions you may have about the steps we are taking to keep you, and every patient, safe in our practice.

To make an appointment, please call our office at 847-816-0463.
