Important COVID-19 Information
Dear Patients,
Our office will remain open Monday – Wednesday to treat emergency patients. Our doctors will be on call Thursday and Friday to help treat any urgent situations that arise. If you are experiencing a dental emergency or need to speak with someone from our office, please do not hesitate to reach out.
In light of the COVID-19 virus, local Health Department officials have ordered dental offices in Monterey County to cease offering non-essential, routine hygiene appointments until further notice. As such, we will need to postpone your hygiene visit. Please call our office at (831) 422-7838 to reschedule your appointment.
Please note, per Monterey County’s Shelter In Place Order, healthcare facilities, including dental, are classified as “essential” to public health. Therefore, our office will remain open during this time. Our team of doctors, and reduced ancillary Staff are available for necessary, non-routine dental treatment.
It is important to note, our office is a healthcare facility, well versed in infection control standards. Nonetheless, we have enforced further precautionary measures, per recommendations from the CDC, to minimize the risk of COVID-19 exposure to our Staff and patients.
We will continue to monitor developments on the matter and adhere to recommendations provided by our local Health Department and the Center for Disease Control. Updates will be provided, as necessary. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation during this time.
Sincerely,
The Team at Blanco Circle Dental Care
