HAVE A DENTAL EMERGENCY? Contact our Office, Not the Emergency Department or Urgent Care
We want you to know that the health of our patients, staff, and community is our FIRST priority! Our office is OPEN and seeing dental patients in need of endodontic treatment. We recognize that we must be prepared to adapt to changes as necessary in a responsible manner. Please call the office phone number listed above to schedule an appointment. If we do not answer, please leave a message and we will get back to you soon since we check the messages often. We are abiding by the mandates and recommendations of our state and federal health agencies.
Our office utilizes the most up-to-date sterilization and disinfection protocols available to dental/medical offices. However, during these unprecedented times, we are taking extra steps to ensure your safety in our office.
Please call our office to reschedule your appointment if you, or a family member, have had any of the following:

- Coughing, sneezing, and/or shortness of breath
- New loss of taste and/or smell
- Had close contact with someone with these symptoms
- Traveled anywhere with widespread, ongoing transmission of COVID-19 within the last 14 days, or been in close contact with someone who has.
Please do NOT come to our office until you have been symptom and fever free for at least 72 hours without the use of fever-reducing or other symptom-reducing medicines (e.g. cough suppressants). Please rest assured our employees have been instructed to follow these same guidelines and are required to not come to work if exhibiting any signs of illness.
