SONI DENTISTRY NOW OPEN FOR ALL SERVICES

 

COVID-19 READY! (Updated January 26, 2021)

WHAT IS SONI DENTISTRY DOING?

• We will only see a few patients at any given time.  We will be controlling entry into the dental office and having patients remain in their vehicle/outside.  
• We have placed buffers between appointments to help control the traffic in the office.
• In order to minimize the number of people in the office at any given time, patients come to their appointments alone.  Only children or patients with disabilities can be accompanied by 1 adult.
• We accompany our patients from the start to the finish of their appointment, ensuring that minimal surfaces are touched, to ensure that the office is kept safe
• We have implemented a daily disinfection schedule in the reception area and continue to disinfect between our patients in the operatories
• We have posted many safety COVID-19 signs to help communicate our safety guidelines for staff, patients and visitors to follow
• We have a Joint Health Safety Committee which meets regularly to create, review and help implement our safety protocols
• We are requiring all patients to sanitize their hands and wear a mask when they enter the dental office.
• We are using multiple treatment rooms between patients to ensure that the disinfectant thoroughly soaks to destroy any germs and viruses.
• We are using routine practices and contact/droplet precautions (i.e. procedure/surgical mask, gloves and eye protection), plus fit-tested N95 masks, gowns and face shields.
• We are obtaining a history of all our patients’ medical conditions and previous travels prior to every dental appointment.
• To help stop the spread of infection against germs, viruses and bacteria, we are requiring all patients to do a pre-procedural rinse at their appointment.
• We have plexiglass barriers to keep our staff and patients safe.
• We have invested in Merv-19 HEPA filtration system to help keep our air clean.

 

IMPORTANT NOTICE TO PATIENTS:

Coronavirus (COVID-19) UPDATE

ALL ELECTIVE DENTAL SERVICES SUSPENDED

March 16, 2020

Dear Patients,

The health and safety of our patients and employees is our top priority. We have been closely monitoring developments of the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) and are following guidelines from the government, relevant health authorities as well as the Royal College of Dental Surgeons of Ontario (RCDSO).

Starting on Monday, March 16, 2020 and continuing until further notice, we must implement new restrictions on patient care. This is based on the latest advice we have received from the Royal College of Dental Surgeons of Ontario about the Coronavirus outbreak.

If you have a scheduled appointment for routine/elective dental treatment (such as a checkup, cleaning, filling, extraction, etc.), the appointment is cancelled and we will work with you to reschedule your appointment to a later date. We are now restricting treatment to urgent/emergency care only at our 400 Avondale East location (519-453-5111 ext. 2)

Urgent or Emergency Care:

You must have one or more of these conditions:

• Severe toothache pain
• Swelling of your gums, face, or neck
• Bleeding in your mouth that does not stop
• Infection or a substantial risk of it
• Trauma

If you do require urgent/emergency care, please DO NOT come in to the office without first calling.

We regret that we must restrict our patient care this way. We are serving our patients in the safest manner possible by following the advice of the RCDSO and other health authorities. In doing this, we will safeguard the health and safety of our patients, our health care providers, and the whole community. We are confident you will understand, and we thank you for your cooperation. 

Sincerely,

Dr. Soni & Dr. Kim, Soni Dentistry
