Since March 16, 2020 our office has been closed for all except emergency care in compliance with the directives of Public Health and our provincial regulating body. Now, we are so excited to share the news that we have received the "go ahead" to re-open our office for regular dental care. Starting this week, our administrative team will begin to schedule appointments! Our re-opening will be gradual but rest assured that we can meet your needs in keeping with the provincial guidelines.
Our Guiding Principle continues to be the health, safety and well-being of our patients, staff and general community. Our office has always followed required infection control practices and now, in response to the COVID 19 Pandemic, these requirements have been expanded and implemented at Kaydental and our excellent team of professionals remains eager to see you again. Some of the things we have done to prepare for the re-opening include rigorous staff training in keeping with required guidelines, installing plexi-glass shields at the administrative area, increasing Hand Sanitizing stations and enhanced air filtration.
In the interest of your health and safety, and that of our team and the community, here are some changes you will notice:
→ Social distancing practices are in place;
→ New protocols for patient and staff health screenings according to the Ministry of Health COVID 19 criteria, and a temperature check with a no-touch digital thermometer;
→ Our schedule will be spaced to reduce the number of patients attending at a given time;
→ Patients will be triaged to enable us to attend to the most urgent needs as soon as possible.
As well,
✱ You will see frequent disinfection of high touch surfaces such as doorknobs and countertops.
✱ You will receive instructions for entering the office prior to your appointment.
✱ You might see members of our team wearing different PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) than you are used to seeing.
✱ We will continue to offer phone and electronic consultation options for specific situations.
If you have a scheduled appointment or have had an appointment cancelled due to COVID 19 we will contact you to confirm or re-schedule. For now continue your home care and don't hesitate to contact us if you any questions or concerns. Thank you for your patience and understanding over the past few months and your support as we move forward together. We look forward to seeing you!
With best wishes for your continued good health,
The Kaydental Team
For over 30 years our North York dental office has treated and assessed a wide range of oral health conditions in the North York region.
Our practices include dental care for the whole family: Adult General and Cosmetic Dentistry (adults, seniors, and teens). Specialist in Pediatric Dentistry for toddlers, children and people with special needs. Specialist in Orthodontics for children, adolescents, and adults including Invisalign
At Kaydental, our North York dentists are committed to fully informing our patients regarding their oral health needs. We accomplish this by utilizing various types of media, including digital imaging, and personally educating you about our findings. The dentists and highly trained staff at our North York dental office strive to clearly communicate your dental conditions to you and explain our recommended treatment options. To ensure top levels of communication, our team members speak Mandarin, Cantonese, Spanish, Italian, Farsi, Russian, Tagalog and Korean.
We realize that many people have a fear of dentistry. As a result, many people avoid seeking regular and even emergency dental care and suffer needlessly from the effects of oral disease. Through our compassionate approach to treatment, in combination with a variety of technologies and sedation techniques, we have had many patients overcome these fears. Our North York dental team is well trained in the utilization of nitrous oxide ("laughing gas") sedation and utilize a computerized local anaesthetic, that reduces discomfort and anxiety; a very comfortable alternative to the traditional dental injection needle.
Our North York Dentistal office is highly committed to helping people overcome these fears and establish a positive approach to regular oral health care. We are always welcoming families and new patients of all ages! If you're looking for a dentist in North York and near Sheppard and Yonge, we would be thrilled to welcome you to ours!
Sincerely,
The Team at Kaydental
