These\nstrict sanitation standards protect you from illnesses like the common cold and\nthe flu during your routine dental visits. Now, even more safety measures have\nbeen put in place <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edfamilydental.com\/covid-19-safety-protocol.html\">to keep you\nsafe from the coronavirus<\/a>. Here\u2019s how your Astoria dentist and their team\nkeep their hands clean during your appointment in COVID-19. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Advanced COVID-19 Training<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The first dental safety protocol in Astoria your dentist\nestablished before reopening their practice was advanced COVID-19 training for\nall team members. It covered essential information on coronavirus awareness and\nprevention, including the best practices for hand hygiene in a pandemic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Excellent Hand Hygiene<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To keep germs from spreading, your dental team wears a brand-new\npair of disposable gloves between each patient. Additionally, they frequently\nwash their hands throughout the day, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Before and after treating each patient.<\/li><li>Before leaving the practice and directly after\nreturning to it. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Touch-Free Greetings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As happy as they are to welcome you back, your dental team\nwill be postponing handshakes and hugs until the threat of COVID-19 has passed.\nInstead, they\u2019ll be using touch-free greetings to keep everyone safe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Personal Hygiene Standards<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To ensure their handwashing is as effective as possible,\nteam members are expected to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Maintain short, clean fingernails.<\/li><li>Refrain from wearing rings, watches, and other\nhand jewelry. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hospital-Grade Sanitizer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>New disinfecting stations with hospital-grade sanitizer have\nbeen set up throughout the practice. Staff and patients alike will be asked to\ndisinfect their hands before entering the clinical area of the office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">No Magazines or Activities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A few changes have been made to reduce the risk of spreading\ninfected particles through frequently touched objects, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Removing items like magazines, toys, and other items\nthat could harbor germs.<\/li><li>Sanitizing high-traffic fixtures like countertops,\npens, and doorknobs hourly. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Smartphone UV Box<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Studies estimate that the typical cellphone user touches\ntheir phone 2,617 times a day. Since COVID-19 can survive on some surfaces for\ndays at a time, every phone that enters the practice is disinfected with a\nmodern appliance called a UV smartphone box. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Frequent Sanitizing &amp; Nightly Deep Cleaning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Every surface of your dentist\u2019s office needs to be clean in\norder to keep their team\u2019s hands germ-free, which is why they:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Disinfect all surfaces and equipment in\ntreatment rooms after each patient. <\/li><li>Sanitize the entire practice top to bottom with\na deep cleaning every evening. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Now more than ever, excellent hand hygiene plays a key role\nin keeping you and those around you safe from viruses. Thankfully, your dentist\nand their team have years of experience keeping both you and your smile as\nhealthy as possible. If you need to visit them during the pandemic, you can feel\nconfident that you\u2019re in good, capable, and clean hands!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>At ED Family Dental, nothing is more important than the\nwellbeing of our patients, staff, and the community of Astoria, NY.
