The health and well-being of our staff, patients and community is important to us. Fortunately, we have great measures in place already: 

• Hand hygiene protocols
• Appropriate personal protective equipment ie. Masks, gloves, eye protection and scrubs/gowns
• Dedicated dental assistant to ensure minimisation of aerosols during procedures
• High standards of infection control procedures

Additional changes we have implemented:

1. Prior to arrival – We screen for patient who have flu-like symptoms, have had contact with a confirmed COVID case or have recent returned from overseas.
2. On arrival – record tracing. 
3. Hand sansitiser is readily available.
4. Your temperature will be checked. 
5. Social distancing inside the premises.
6. Pre-procedural mouthrise of 1.5% hydrogen peroxide.
7. Additional stringent decontamination procedures after each patient. 
8. We now have a COVID safe business plan in place.

Depending on the level of restrictions mandated by the Australian Dental Association, there are may be other measures in place to help our community deal with controlling COVID-19.

Thank you for your co-operation and understanding.
