COVID-19 (Coronavirus)

COVID-19 Update

During this journey of unprecedented times, providing safe patient care has been our focus. We want to sincerely thank you for being patient and supportive as we safely return to providing full dental care. 

We have returned to normal business operations based on updated CDC guidelines, and are now open during our normal business hours:

Monday    8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.
Tuesday    7:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m.
Wednesday    7:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m.
Thursday    12:30 p.m. - 7:00p.m.
Friday    8:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
Saturday    8:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.
 

To keep our patients, team members, and community safe, we have implemented these new guidelines: 
  • Call us when you arrive in the parking lot. To minimize the number of people in our clinic, we are allowing one patient inside at a time. We ask that you please wait in your car until we are ready for you. When you arrive, please call our clinic to let us know you're here: (708) 403-9848
  • Wear a mask. We ask that patients wear a mask at all times when inside our clinic except for when receiving care.
  • Patient screening. We will use a no-contact thermometer to take your temperature and will also ask you to complete a patient screening form before entering the clinic.
  • We are using HEPA filters in our clinic. HEPA filters are highly effective at trapping particles several hundred time smaller than the width of a human hair and help keep our clinic air safe and clean.
  • Special hours offered. We are offering special hours for vulnerable patients who have special health concerns.

Our teams take COVID-19 safety very seriously. Here's an example of the additional PPE we're wearing to keep both our patients and staff safe:

Please inform our staff immediately if you are experiencing any signs of COVID-19, have been exposed to someone with symptoms, or if you have been exposed to someone who tested positive for COVID-19.

Do not come to your appointment if you have a cough, a fever, or shortness of breath.

Please refer to the CDC for the latest information on symptoms: cdc.gov/coronavirus

 

We thank you for your understanding and look forward to seeing you once again!
