Is It Safe To Visit The Dentist During COVID-19?

Your Safety Is Our Priority

COVID-19 has changed not just our lives, but the way we see the world, and it is understandable to have some apprehension about getting out and doing things that we saw as normal before. However, you should not put off going to the dentist due to the pandemic. At Tampa Smile Co., we’ve implemented COVID safety protocols to the highest degree, so you can feel safe while receiving essential dental care to keep your teeth and gums healthy. Oral health is directly linked with your overall well being, so stop putting off going to the dentist and visit Dr. Bawany and the rest of our team to get the care your smile deserves. 

Enhanced Sanitation & Safety Procedures

We’ve always practiced extensive sanitation and exceptional hygiene at our Tampa office, but now we’re taking on additional measures to provide you with the safety and peace of mind that you deserve when visiting your South Tampa dentist. Our team follows all of the recommended best practices from the CDC, OSHA, and the ADA, including having their temperatures taken daily, and staggering appointment times to minimize crowding of the office and to maximize social distancing. Every operatory receives a full sanitization after every single visit, utilizing the latest in enhanced sanitation procedures, like the use of Ultraviolet A (UVA) technology. We also make sure to keep our common areas clean, and disinfect everything multiple times throughout the day. With these additional safety measures, you can rest easy knowing that our office is a safe space to get your smile healthy. 

Your Oral Health Is Important!

Good oral hygiene is crucial to maintaining your overall health, not just for keeping your smile sparkling. The primary entrance to our respiratory system and digestive tract, our mouths are full of (mostly harmless) bacteria. However, if the scales are allowed to tip, and bad bacteria begins to take over your mouth, not only will you begin to suffer from tooth decay and gum disease, but you’ll be at an even greater risk for developing complications that go beyond just your pearly whites. A buildup of bad bacteria can lead to oral infections that lower the immune system’s ability to fight off other diseases, like the flu, or the COVID-19 virus. Poor oral hygiene has even been associated with other serious conditions like pneumonia, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. Don’t skip out on the dentist — your oral well being can impact your whole body, so visit Dr. Bawany at Tampa Smile Co. to ensure you’re protecting the health of you and your family.
