Covid-19 Update
Covid-19 is in the news everywhere and we are closely monitoring the situation. As stated in our Mission Statement,"We treat every patient as an individual of worth, who deserves to be a partner in his or her quest for exceptional dental health."
At Dr. Beres' Nipomo Dental Office, your health and the health of our staff are of the utmost importance. To ensure that these health concerns are met, we continue to follow "universal precautions" in our treatment rooms and throughout the office, as outlined by the CDC and OSHA standards of infection control. Our high standard of care ensures that your trust and safety are never compromised.
We are taking extended measures to further protect our all our patients and team with the following additional protocols. On regular basis we will wipe down the waiting room and common spaces with disinfectant. We will ask our patients to sanitize their hands upon arrival at our office, we will also take your temperature. At the beginning of each appointment we will ask you to pre-rinse with an anti viral diluted hydrogen peroxide. We will enact measures to assist in "social distancing" while you are in our office.
