Covid-19 Policy

To our valued Sun Dental patients, we hope this letter finds all of you safe and healthy. Please read it in its entirety.

Our office follows infection control recommendations made by the American Dental Association (ADA), the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). We follow the activities of these agencies so that we are up-to-date on any new guidance that may be issued and we adhere to each agency's recommendations.

You will see some changes when it is time for your next appointment. The following changes have been implemented to help protect our patients and staff:

Our office will communicate with you beforehand to ask some screening questions. There will also be a form to fill out on our website here. You'll be asked those same questions again when you are in the office.

We have hand sanitizer that we will ask you to use when you enter the office. You will also find some in the reception area and other places in the office for you to use as needed.

You may see that our waiting room will no longer offer magazines, children's toys and so forth, since those items are difficult to clean and disinfect.

Appointments will be managed to allow for social distancing between patients. That might mean you are offered fewer options for scheduling your appointment.

We will do our best to allow greater time between patients to reduce waiting times for you, as well as to reduce the number of patients in the reception area at any one time. We look forward to seeing you again and are happy to answer any questions you may have about the steps we take to keep you, and every patient, safe in our practice. To make an appointment, please call our office at 732-341-9111 or to request an appointment, click here.

Our office's safety protocol was the most important factor in reopening. We will have N95 masks, waterproof disposable gowns, surgical headgear and face-shields.

Due to these unprecedented changes our office will be charging an additional $15 per visit for PPE protection. Some dental insurance companies has agreed to cover this increase and we encourage any patient with dental insurance to call your provider and ask them to cover this expense. Otherwise this is a non-covered benefit.

Sun Dental is doing our part to help contain the spread of COVID-19. Thank you for being our patient. We value your trust and loyalty and look forward to welcoming back our patients, neighbors and friends.

Wishing everyone good health and safety.

Sun Dental

Dr. Hada, McTaggart and Cintron
