Covid-19
OUR Policy
We have made some changes and we would like to share them with you.
At Hello Kids Dentistry, our priority has always been to provide safe pediatric dental care to our patients. Even though our doors have been closed, we have been preparing to see you and your children again! You will notice not only a "squeaky clean" office but also new medical-grade equipment and systems for the protection of our patients and staff.
Our team will have their "Astronaut Gear" on, we will have a stepping pathway for your kiddos to walk through the office on an adventure, we will be wearing "Dress ups" and overall... We will be battling SUGAR BUGS & PROTECTING ourselves from all kinds of bugs including Covid-19 bugs. We are grateful to our amazing crew who is more than happy to come back to the jobs we love to do every day! Below, you will find thorough information regarding the changes that we have implemented in our practice and the systems that we have put into place to continue to provide safe, fun and awesome dental care to our patients. Let's get through this together...
