team members throughout our state continue to effectively implement ADA and CDC recommendations . Your dental appointments remain important .
“ Many of the minor problems in the mouth go unnoticed by the patient , but can be detected and easily fixed by the trained dentist . Letting a minor problem go for any period of time can result in a major problem , costing the patient time and money to repair ,” Dr . Brady said . “ It is essential that regular dental visits be maintained to minimize the possibility of additional appointments and save patients valuable money .”
The health and safety of patients is always the top priority of dental health care providers , and with robust infection control and social distancing protocols in effect , the full range of dental care will continue to be practiced safely during the remainder of the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond .
