Getting "Back To Normal" in the age of Covid-19




Coronavirus Announcement - Jasmine Uniquely Chinese
     

     Our patients' health is always our number one priority. In cooperation with NY State emergency regulations regarding Coronavirus (COVID-19) in the New York area, we have temporarily suspended all routine dental treatment until June 1st, 2020. The goal is to curtail non-essential trips out of your home and in turn, help control the spread of the virus.      Hopefully, we will be resuming a normal schedule by the end of May or beginning of June. We remain available to treat any emergencies by special appointment.  If you need to reach me to discuss any aspect of your your oral health care, please call the office at 212-421-4887.
     Until we can see you again, please consider the following:

-          Excellent preventive oral care is more important than ever
-          Wear your nightguard (if you have one). These are stressful times, and stress  leads to increased clenching and grinding of the teeth.
-          Please be aware of how often your hands come in contact with your mouth. I recommend washing your hands before any action that involves touching your mouth ie. flossing, brushing.

I apologize that the current situation necessitates delaying your important routine care and treatment. I value each and every one of you and your families, and look forward to resuming regular dental visits as soon as allowed by the NY State health department and the Governor’s office.
     Thank you for trusting us all these years and we appreciate your confidence in us.
