COVID-19 Safety Protocols
The entire team at Saunders and Krog has been vaccinated for the safety of our patients. In our practice, we strictly follow the guidelines provided by the ADA, CDC, and OSHA as part of the infection control procedures. We stay up-to-date on any new guidance provided by these agencies.
Have a look at the changes we implemented in our office to help protect our patients and staff:
Pre-Screening Of Every Patient
Before making an appointment, we will pre-screen patients on the phone in case they have any symptoms.
Compulsorily Wear a Mask
Make sure to wear a mask whenever you arrive at the dental office.
Expanded Patient Appointments
We will manage the appointments in a way that we could maintain social distancing between patients. This means we will be offering fewer options to schedule your visit.
Sanitize Your Hands
We have a hand sanitizer that we will ask you to use when you enter the office.
Oral Anti-Microbial Rinse
Before making you sit on the dental chair, you will have to use an oral pre-rinse for about 30 seconds.
PPE
We have reinforced our staff and doctor PPE barriers.
Cleaning After Every Appointment
In each operatory, after every patient, we thoroughly wipe, sanitize, and disinfect all instruments, equipment, and surfaces to make everything super clean.
Sterilization of Instruments
This is something we do ever since we started our practice. You can trust us and need not worry about anything.
Advanced Staff Training
We have trained our team members regarding additional awareness and also prevention programs to enhance their knowledge and keep them more prepared.
No Magazines Or Toys
Our waiting room will no longer be offering magazines, coffee, or toys, as it's quite hard to clean and disinfect these items. We will be happy to answer any questions you may have in your mind regarding the steps we have taken to make your visit a safe and secure one. To make an appointment, please call our office at (701) 293-9886.
Sincerely,
Dr. Saunders, Dr. Krog, and the staff
