When to Consider Expanders
Nearly everyone is familiar with braces and why they are sometimes necessary, but fewer people are aware of palatal expanders. Here, we describe what expanders are and when they might be an appropriate treatment.
How we are staying safe during the pandemic.
During these difficult times, we are under tremendous pressure to balance providing dental care to those who need it with adequately protecting our staff and our patients. This is why we have decided to keep our dental office open. This means we have also invested in additional equipment and personal protection to make the treatment and office visits safe for our patients as well as staff.
What This Means For You.
- Please wear a mask or face covering.
- We will take your temperature prior to taking you to the office.
- We will reserve limited time slots for existing and new patients who are serious about their appointment and can come to the office on time.
- You need to be healthy to be treated. If you have any symptoms such as persistent fever, dry cough, shortness of breath/difficulty breathing, or a general feeling of being unwell, please call right away so we can give you further instructions.
