Safe Dentistry in Mount Pleasant, WI

Our Infection Control Measures

Our infection control measures align with guidelines from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). By following these standards, we maintain a clean, secure environment for all patients, especially those who may be more susceptible to infections. Our procedures include:

• Disinfectant Hand Soap – Hand hygiene is paramount, and we use specially formulated disinfectant hand soap to help control and eliminate germs.
• Air Purifier – We utilize air purifiers in both the reception area and the operatory to mitigate the risk of airborn pathogens during your visit.
• Flo Face Masks – Our team uses special face masks designed to prevent the spread of air droplets during your dental procedure.
• Surface Disinfection – Every surface, from countertops to patient chairs, is thoroughly disinfected using hospital-grade chemicals before each appointment.
• Sterilization of Equipment – All reusable equipment, including dental handpieces, undergoes rigorous sterilization through our advanced autoclave system.
• Use of Disposable Materials – To limit contamination, we use disposable items wherever possible, ensuring each patient’s visit is hygienic and safe.

Peace of Mind Through Transparency

Education and trust are vital in infection control. By understanding the procedures we implement, you can make informed decisions about your care. Our dentist and team are committed to maintaining a transparent approach, giving patients the opportunity to ask questions about any infection control measure. We believe that the more you know about our daily practices, the more comfortable and confident you will feel about your treatment.

COVID-19 Precautions

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

Dentistry is one of the only professions where patients are required to open their mouth, sometimes for extended periods of time! Therefore, our dentist and team wear N-95s for many of our patients who need it for health reasons or those who just feel more comfortable with us wearing N-95s.

Unlike most dental offices, Relax Family Dental has doors that we close during cleanings and treatment so patients have a more quiet and self-contained dental experience.

For questions about our COVID-19 precautions, please contact us. We are here to help ensure your dental visit is safe and comfortable.
