Hello Friends,
During our current National Emergency concerning the COVID-19 virus, we would like to assure you that at the offices of Overland Park Dentistry, your health, safety and well-being is our highest priority.
We will remain open for all treatment & services, including preventative wellness visits.
You can feel safe knowing that all our clinical areas are, and always have been, treated with standards that far exceed all state and federal guidelines. Our team is highly trained annually, using guidelines set forth by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). Our training, coupled with our commitment to the highest standards of care, will see us through this unusual time calmly and successfully.
In addition, you can feel confident that we are taking the following precautionary measures in the common areas:
- We will be increasing the frequency of disinfecting all door handles, reception area surfaces, furniture, credit card terminals, restrooms and more.
- We have removed all shared magazines and newspapers.
- Remember, all New Patient Forms are available on our website to print & complete at home, before your appointment.
- All non-essential items at the check-out desks such as pens, business cards and candies will be removed from the counter and still available by request.
We are counting on you to help us get through this as well. If you are experiencing flu-like symptoms, or if you, or someone you have been in contact with, have traveled out of the country in the last 21 days, please call our office at 913-647-8700 to discuss rescheduling your appointment. (There will NOT be appointment cancellation charges at this time.)
Please know that we are closely monitoring the evolving situation and are following all CDC and ADA guidelines.
