To protect our patients, we have always taken care to maintain an environment that guards against potential infection issues. In order to continue providing a safe space while there are active coronavirus concerns, we have made changes to our scheduling and to the office itself. By doing so, we are controlling risks and ensuring that both our team members and patients can show up and feel safe.
To control potential patient interactions, we have spaced out our scheduling and taken care to remove items from our waiting room that people tend to handle. There will also be sanitizing stations available for use. To protect our office environment, new technology, including air purifiers that are able to deal with viruses, are in place. We will continue to follow the guidance of the ADA and CDC and make any recommended adjustments as new information is learned and shared.
When poor periodontal health goes untreated, the consequences can be serious. Bacteria under your gums can destroy the tissues that keep your teeth in place, leading to tooth loss issues. Infections can also have a negative impact on your overall health when bacteria spread through your bloodstream. If your condition is severe enough to cause long-term problems, we can discuss different services, including laser periodontal treatment, to combat its effect on you. For those who are hoping to prevent problems with gingivitis from worsening, we can discuss preventive periodontal care.
Patients at our periodontal treatment facility can count on our continued support, which includes a commitment to maintaining a safe environment for everyone. To learn more about how we keep patients safe, and what we can do to help individuals struggling with gum disease, you can reach out to Dr. Kania’s periodontal office in Encinitas/San Diego, CA, at (760) 642-0711.
