Now, that same sight is highly unlikely to happen. In order to maintain dental office safety during COVID-19, practices have implemented new rules and policies. When it comes to uniforms, many are requiring staff to use disposable coats during the day and change in and out of their work clothes at the office. But how exactly do these procedures keep you safe? In this article, you\u2019ll find out why and learn about other policies your dentist is using to fight the spread of the coronavirus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Clothing Makes A Difference<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dental professionals are trying to prevent germs from moving\nin and out of their offices. Even when staff do their best to avoid direct\ncontact with patients, they can still risk have germs land on their clothes\nwhen they cough or sneeze. In fact, one study found that 30% of medical workers\u2019\nscrubs had pathogenic bacteria on them at the end of the day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When dentist office staff change into a dedicated pair of\nscrubs at their office prior to starting work, they\u2019re stopping some of the\ngerms they were exposed to outside from reaching patients. When the day is\nover, changing out of their scrubs and back into other clothes limits the\nspread of germs from patients to people outside the office. Practices are also\nproviding staff with personal protective equipment to prevent germs from\naccumulating on them throughout the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Steps Your Dentist Is Taking To Keep You Safe<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dental offices are taking a comprehensive approach to stopping\nCOVID-19. In addition to changing clothes and using personal protective\nequipment, many practices are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Providing consultations and postoperative\ncheckups through the internet<\/li><li>Screening patients prior to entry to detect\nsymptoms of COVID-19<\/li><li>Implementing one way traffic paths and\ninstalling plastic barriers at the reception desk<\/li><li>Using hand sanitizing stations before and after\neach appointment<\/li><li>Installing air filters and advanced suction\ndevices in operatories to capture aerosols <\/li><li>Disinfecting areas that patients come in contact\nwith after each appointment<\/li><li>Reducing close contact by not hugging patients\nor shaking their hands<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>While many aspects of life have changed during this crisis,\nthe importance of your dental health has remained the same. Dentists know that\nyou are going to continue relying on their expertise to keep your teeth safe\nand clean during this time. Your dentist in Bartlesville has implemented these\nand other procedures so that you can continue to receive the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mydentistrybydesign.com\/preventive-dentistry.html\">comfortable\ncare you\u2019ve grown accustomed to<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About The Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Luke Lumpkin attended the University of Oklahoma College\nof Dentistry and graduated in 2006.
