W Dental Care has reopened on a limited basis. We are prioritizing emergencies and patients with procedures. We can also do limited hygiene, if space is available. Please call or email us to set up your appointment.

**Special COVID-19 Procedures in Effect**

Our #1 priority is the safety of our patients and staff. We're making some changes to support this, while maintaining the level of patient care that you are accustomed to. We are implementing enhanced healthcare protocols in an effort to maintain social distancing and provide safe dental care. W Dental is strictly following guidelines from CDC, OSHA and ADA. This will greatly protect everyone’s health and reduce the spread of any virus.

Make careful note of the following changes to your upcoming dental visit:

• You show any flu-like/COVID symptoms within 2 weeks of your appointment.
• You have been with a group of 25 or more people within 2 weeks of your appointment.
• We’ll have you pay any appointment fees prior to arrival in order to encourage contactless payments.
• Due to extremely limited availability, please change/cancel appointments at least 48 business hours prior to avoid $50 fee.
