Coronavirus Update

Covid policy (updated 6/10/2021):

We hope you and your family are in good health. Our community has been through a lot over the last year and all of us are excited about some return to our normal habits and routines. We are so thankful for your patience, as we have all done our part in COVID-19 mitigation. While many things have changed, one thing has remained the same: our commitment to you, your dental health, and your safety.

Infection control has always been a top priority for our practice. Our office follows infection control recommendations made by the American Dental Association (ADA), the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). We follow the activities of these agencies so that we are up-to-date on new rulings or guidance that may be issued. We make sure that our infection control procedures are current and adhere to each agency’s recommendations. Based on new advice from these organizations, you will experience some changes when it is time for your next appointment.

• Our office will communicate with you beforehand to ask some screening questions.
• The CDC is still requiring masks in health care settings. Please wear a mask when you arrive in the office.
• We will have hand sanitizer in the reception area and we ask you to use it when you enter the office. If you need to use a pen, you may keep it.
• We have removed the magazines and toys from our waiting room, to keep it easily disinfected.
• We will be disinfecting counters, door handles, and furniture multiple times throughout the day.
• Our team members will be wearing masks at the front desk and in and out of the treatment rooms; however, it’ll still be that friendly person you know behind the mask!
• There will be plexiglass screens at the office desks to keep you and the staff protected.

We look forward to seeing you again and are happy to answer any questions you may have about the steps we take to keep you, and every patient, safe in our practice. Please call our office at 651-738-1284 for Woodbury or 651-459-6884 for Cottage Grove to schedule an appointment to maintain your dental health. We greatly appreciate your support and confidence in our team and look forward to welcoming you back – our patients, neighbors and friends!

In Gratitude,

The Woodgrove Dental Team
