How We Change
with the Times
Thanks to COVID-19, dental offices have had to reevaluate their approach to patient safety. Here at Patriot Dental, we follow the latest recommendations and guidelines for preventing the spread of infection at our dental office, and we’ve made a few changes to the way we handle appointments as a result. Call us to see what might have changed since your last appointment and what we’ve done to ensure you can continue to get excellent dental care without putting your overall health at risk.
