COVID-19 Clean: Your Safety First

UPDATED 11/1/2022 — The Washington State Department of Health requires masks in medical and dental offices. Please don't forget to wear a mask when arriving for your appointment.


Steps we're taking at Hamamoto Dentistry to protect you and your loved ones from Covid-19.


DAILY PRESCREENING OF PATIENTS AND STAFF

  • Patients with COVID-19 symptoms are requested to contact their medical providers and be rescheduled until their medical provider has given clearance.
  • All staff members are screened for COVID-19 symptoms upon arrival daily.

SOCIAL DISTANCING

  • Patients are to wait in their vehicles and call the office to inform us of their arrival for their scheduled appointment.
  • All patients and co-visitors should wear masks in and out of the office after procedures.
  • When arriving for an appointment, patients will check in with the receptionist and have their temperature taken with a contact-free thermometer. If a patient's temperature exceeds 99 degrees Fahrenheit, we will reschedule the appointment.
  • There is a limit to one patient per operatory, and all guests are requested to remain in their vehicle.

CHANGES THAT HAVE BEEN IMPLEMENTED

  • Medical-grade H13 HEPA air filters that remove 99.97% of airborne particles have been installed throughout the office.
  • We will look slightly different as our staff will always be wearing face shields.
  • Plexiglass has been placed in specific areas of the office.
  • You will notice several directional signs around the office.
  • Operatories are disinfected with CDC-approved COVID-19 killing agents.

PROCEDURAL SAFETY

  • If you have traveled by plane, please wait 5 days and have a negative test before coming in for your appointment.
  • All patients will sanitize their hands and will be asked to use a mouth rinse before the procedure begins.
  • We now have a new vacuum system to minimize and capture aerosols during procedures.
  • All of our staff are utilizing CDC-approved COVID-19 PPE equipment and protocols.
