Covid 19



On May 7th, 2020, Governor Larry Hogan lifted the “Stay at home” order and allowed us to return to provide dentistry for our patients. We are excited to see everyone again. As you have already known, cases for COVID-19 are still relevant. We have been working diligently to improve our services and protocols to help prevent the spread of the disease and to protect our team, our patients, and our community. We have resumed regular appointments with the dentist and modified hygiene appointments. The following protocols will be carried out indefinitely:

  • Advanced Registration for New Patients - Please use our Online Registration Form.
  • Pre-Appointment confirmation calls - to asses any changes in your health
  • 'In-Your-Car' waiting: - Please call us when you arrive and remain in your car until its okay for you to enter the office.
  • Mask Requirements - All patients are required to wear a mask while in office. If you do not have one, we will provide you with our disposable mask.
  • No Gloves - Please remove your gloves and dispose of properly before you enter the office. There will be a trash can in the vestibule.
  • Hand Sanitizer - to be used by all patients when entering office.
  • Temperature Checks - All patients are checked for fever with our infrared/ touchless thermometer
  • Straight to the treatment room : You will be escorted to the treatment room as soon as you enter the office.
  • COVID-19 health questionnaire and interview - to be completed in the operatory.
  • Limitations on companions - Only patients with appointments are allowed entry within the office. Family members or friends must remain outside in the car unless an accommodation is needed and discussed with us prior to the appointment.
  • New scheduling protocols - Each appointment is given an extra 10 minutes to allow proper disinfection and to adhere to the social-distancing rules.
  • Writing pen - Patients may bring a pen if they wish or use ours (to keep)
  • If you are sick and do not feel well, please inform the office immediately.

Our Team:

  • Daily health assessment and temperature check of each team members at the beginning of the day.
  • Full personal protective equipment(PPE) for all surgical team members
  • Mask is worn by all team members at all times. This mask is different than the mask worn during the procedure.
  • Ongoing training on OSHA and infection control protocol and close monitoring for compliance.

Facility:

  • Continuous and thorough disinfection of ALL surfaces in the office

Thank you for your understanding and patience during these unusual and difficult times. The health and safety of everyone are our concerns and main goal. We are looking forward to seeing you again even though we have to adhere to the social distancing and limiting your time inside the office.

Warm wishes,

Dr. Kevin Y. Myint
