At Ohio Dental Implants & Oral Surgery, we continually focus on the health and well-being of our team and patients. Our established COVID-19 protocols will help us welcome new and existing patients to our practice. To provide a safe and healthy environment for everyone, we have taken the following steps:

  • We are performing temperature checks through a touchless thermometer at check-in.
  • Hand sanitizer will be available throughout the office.
  • Each team member will be wearing personal protective equipment (PPE). 
  • Additional time has been scheduled between appointments for thorough deep cleaning of the treatment rooms and the reception and and administrative areas.
  • We are implementing special appointment times for our most vulnerable patients.
  • We are incorporating all necessary patient forms online through our website. In addition, we will be directly emailing these forms to patients before check-in to limit paper/ pen high-touch zones.
  • We have installed air filters in surgical rooms and the front reception area to circulate and clean air.
  • We disinfect all operatories and front reception areas every hour, and after every patient we see.
  • We have removed all reading materials to avoid possible cross-contamination.
  • Team members follow rigorous healthy hygiene habits, such as frequent hand washing/sanitizing and monitoring for COVID-19 symptoms before heading to work. We will require a temperature check-in for all employees at the start of the day.

To help us maintain this safe and healthy environment, we ask all patients to follow certain safety guidelines.

  • Wear a mask when entering the office.  They will be mandatory.
  • When you arrive, call or text us from your car.  We will let you know when we are ready for you to enter the office.  You can avoid the reception area and return to a clean and sterilized treatment room.
  • All surgical escorts must wait outside the office.  We will call or text you when the patient is ready to leave post-surgery.
  • Use the hand sanitizer station at the front door prior to check-in.
  • Please leave family members at home (unless escorting a minor) to limit the number of people inside the practice.
  • If you have a fever or feel sick, please let us know.  We will reschedule your appointment for two weeks later.
  • Maintain social distancing by staying 6 feet or farther away from other patients.
  • If you experience a fever or any COVID-19 symptoms within 14 days after your appointment, please call us and let us know.
