Perio Health Partners

Friends: We are very safe here at Perio Health Partners because we are serious about screening and testing for covid and we have taken serious steps to keep us all safe and healthy. Untreated Periodontal disease puts you at risk for more severe covid-19 risk and symptoms. Please take care of yourselves

This is our mission @periohealthpartners my grandmother always said our teeth are like #pearls precious and rare. We only get one set of permanent teeth so let’s keep them if we can. #savingteetheveryday #welovewhatwedo #happymonday @drmarelester @periohealthpartners #smileagain

Just putting this reminder out there for anyone who has medical and dental needs (other than emergent) Please have patience with your healthcare providers as it is sometimes impossible to fathom what a day looks like in a private office or hospital for that matter ....we have had to hire two more people in our office just to handle all the Covid questions and precautions so we can keep our office safe for patients and our team members and families. In the not too distan...t past we had a patient who came back from New Zealand (it was not an emergent issue) and she refused to do the 14 day quarantine before coming in to see us so naturally we did not allow her in the office and she has decided to go somewhere else. It also takes more time to see patients safely as we continue to maintain social distance in our office. Safety matters everyone thank you for your patience. We are always here for you. See more

A deadly link between covid-19 and Periodontal disease... keep flossing and having Periodontal cleanings every 3 months

Does #periodontaldisease put people at risk for #covid19 ? I believe the answer is a definitive yes.! Bacteria found around your teeth is associated with periodontal disease and can play a part in colonizing your lungs and setting the stage for pneumonia. So in this time of #socialdistancing maintain good home care and #floss and #brushyourteeth at least 2-3 times a day. Your #periodontist and #dentist will need to see you as soon as this #quarantine is over #dentalcare #dentistry #smilehealthy #behealthy #oralhealth #wecandothis

Shift your focus from fear to gratitude we will get through this ... turn off the news for a little while... take a deep breathe... get outside .... call your loved ones... try to eat well.... these approaches will give your immune system a boost. Fear causes our immune system to decrease effectiveness. We got this ... breathe

Here for you and your loved ones in a dental emergency

PUBLIC HEALTH ANNOUNCEMENT REGARDING CORONAVIRUS 2019 (COVID-19) Tuesday 3/31/20 Dear Patient: This is a difficult time for everyone however we want you to know that we are here for you. At the heart of Perio Health Partners is a commitment to be available for our patients when they need us. We have always delivered on that promise by remaining true to our mission of restoring wellness. Today I want you to know that our Team has worked tirelessly behind the scenes to provi...de you a safe and healthy environment over and above the recommended CDC protocols. When you return to our practice in a few short weeks we will welcome you back to an updated office environment with new medical grade air filtration systems in each operatory, and our team will be wearing masks, gloves and protective face masks to provide safety above and beyond universal precautions. We are fully prepared to provide you peace of mind in your choice of a Periodontal office now and in the future. We have been monitoring this situation for at least 8 weeks and have been calling patients ahead of schedule to ask if they have: -Developed a new fever, cough or shortness of breath in the last 30 days -Been on a plane or have had known contact with any person confirmed or suspected to be infected with the corona virus. So far we have no reported cases! We have also taken a series of steps to further safeguard your health and safety: -Patients will wait in their cars for their appointment and we will come out to greet, take an air temperature and give you a mask and gloves, we will then bring you into the office at your designated appointment time. -In the future: a quick 15 min covid-19 test is going to be released and we will use it to determine if we can proceed -We will mail you any insurance, billing information or receipts -Payment will be in the form of credit cards, checks and cash In the effort to reduce the transmission of COVID-19 in our community, Perio Health Partners has been in the process of rescheduling all NON-EMERGENCY dental care for our patients until Monday April 13, 2020. We will confirm with you a week in advance if that time frame needs to be extended to the end of April. If you are a patient of record and you believe that you are experiencing a true dental emergency prior to April 13th, please call (585) 376-5300 to speak with Natasa and she will contact me to meet you in the office. If you have friends or relatives that need emergency dental care we can accomodate them. We do this to help our community so we can keep non-covid patients out of the hospital and emergency rooms so our health care workers can concentrate on the critically ill. There is nothing more important than the health and safety of those we care about and love. Together we will get through this. Be safe and stay healthy. Dr. Mary Ann Lester, Natasa, Gloria, Alessio, Claudia, Maria, Reda and Rosalie

#aggressivetoothbrushing creates #recession and loss of #enamel and #dentin can be repaired with #tunneling procedures like #pinholetechnique this #tissuegrafting is not as scary or traumatic as people think if done correctly. This is before and immediately after. There are a lot of fad techniques out there but #sustainability long term is the key to successful root coverage with #patienteducation and proper treatment. #weloveourpatients #makingpeoplesmileagain @periohealthpartners #wearealwayshereforyou @ Perio Health Partners
