COVID-19 Update From Orthodontic Experts
The entire Orthodontic Experts team wants to reassure the safety and well-being of our patients. We have implemented new safety measures for both our patients and staff to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
Few Reminders Before Your Appointment:
- All patients must wear a mask when coming into our clinic.
- Please do not arrive more than 5 minutes prior to your apointment.
- All patients' temperature will be measured.
- Please use our dedicated texting service for your appointment.
Check-in via Text
To help stop the spread of the virus, all of our clinics are doing everything in our power to keep everyone safe during the pandemic. Social distancing is a new term that we all have to adjust to and practice on a daily basis. The number of people in our waiting room is limited. We would like to remind everyone to please use “Check-in via Text” when you arrive at the clinic’s parking lot.
How Our New Texting Line Works
- When the patient arrives in our parking lot, they are to text the dedicated line to let our front desk know they are here.
- Patient should not arrive more than 5 minutes prior to your appointment.
- When we are ready for the patient, we will reply back via text.
We ask that only the patient comes in for their appointment, everyone else should wait in the car. If the patient is a minor, a parent/ guardian can come in as well, but must wait in the waiting room and maintain social distancing guidelines. We are asking for your full cooperation.
