Dear Patient:

Infection control has always been a top priority for our practice and you may have seen this during your visits to our office. Our infection control processes are made so that when you receive care, it’s both safe and comfortable. We want to tell you about the infection control procedures we follow in our practice to keep patients and staff safe.

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 rulings or guidance that may be issued.

You may see some changes when it is time for your next appointment. We made these changes to help protect our patients and staff. For example:

Our office will communicate with you beforehand to ask some screening questions. 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 that you’re 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 (207) 808-7355 or visit our website at www.dental-holistic.com

Thank you for being our patient. We value your trust and loyalty and look forward to welcoming back our patients, neighbors and friends.

Sincerely,
Maine Center for Dental Medicine

Ozone Dentistry

Drs. Imam and Khan of the Maine Center for Dental Medicine are dedicated to providing mercury free, biological dentistry solutions to patients in and around the area of Skowhegan, Maine. Their facility is equipped with some of the most advanced equipment and treatment options, including ozone therapy.

What is ozone?

When patients think of ozone, they think of the air. They are aware of the ozone layer and how it is being destroyed with today’s levels of air pollution. However, this naturally occurring gas is used throughout the world in a variety of ways. Ozone is used for sterilizing public water systems, cleaning fruits and vegetables that we eat, and can purify spa baths and swimming pools. The medical community uses ozone to facilitate faster healing times following surgeries and for the treatment of a wide range of diseases. When patients visit the dentist, they may request ozone therapy with many of their procedures to ensure healing is speedy and natural.

Who offers ozone dentistry?

The team of the Maine Center for Dental Medicine is excited to integrate ozone therapy into dental surgeries for the benefit of the patient.
