Our measures against COVID19

・ We have introduced an air sterilizer (ultraviolet sterilization: removes bacteria and suppresses viruses).

・ At the time of visit, the temperature is measured with a non-contact thermometer. (All visitors)

・ The temperature of the two staff members is measured and recorded daily.

・ We are implementing more than ever to keep the reservation time. There are only two staff members, the director and a dental hygienist, so the hospital will not be filled with many people.

・ Of the four clinic spaces, three are usually semi-private rooms, but by closing the door, they become completely private rooms.

・ By having two waiting rooms, patients do not pass each other.

・ The three medical treatment spaces are equipped with an extraoral vacuum (free arm) (since 1997), which constantly sucks dust discharged during medical treatment.

 

・ All medical treatment spaces are equipped with air purifiers and ventilation fans, and operate 24 hours a day, not only during medical treatment but also after medical treatment.

 

・ Ventilate while looking at the value of the Co2 concentration measuring device. (The toilet is half open in summer, but you can't see it from the outside.)

 

・ All patients who come to the hospital will be asked to disinfect their fingers at the entrance and the front waiting room before entering the clinic, and after the checkout, disinfect their fingers and leave the room. , (Concentration 70% or more ethanol)

 

・ We continue to ask boys to use the toilet in a sitting position. (From 2 years ago)

 

・ Although the toilet is Western style, we ask for your cooperation in always closing the lid of the toilet seat before flushing. (To prevent the generation of aerosols)

 

 

・ Please do not use the clinic toilet as much as possible, and ask that you brush your teeth and add some extra work before you come to the clinic.

 

・ Before treatment, the oral cavity is gargled with a 0.5% hydrogen peroxide solution.

 

・ Although we recommend electronic money, we give patients sterilized currency every day when they enter the clinic.

 * Please consider switching to electronic money at this opportunity.

 

・ A 10% benzalkonium chloride 100-fold diluted aqueous solution is sprayed on the entrance mat in the morning, noon, and night.

 

・ Slippers are also sprayed with a 100-fold diluted aqueous solution of 10% benzalkonium chloride. (As needed)

 

・ Disposable slippers are also available. (¥ 110)

 

・ The parts that the patient may touch are wiped with ethanol, which is a disinfectant.

 

・ Sensor-type hand soap and ethanol for disinfection are installed in the toilet. After washing your hands, you can wipe it with a paper towel.

 

-The automatic door at the entrance can be opened and closed by simply holding your hand over it without touching it. (Prevention of cross infection)

 

・ For people other than patients (traders), we handle them outside the entrance.

 

 

* The above items are efforts to protect the patients and their families who come to our hospital, my staff, their families, and our important people such as my family.

 

 In addition, these matters are not just for dealing with the spread of unprecedented viruses that are currently widespread. We believe that it should be continued in the future in accordance with the new lifestyle.

 

* Patients are not at high risk of being infected with COVID 19 at a dental clinic. We, the dental practitioners, are at high risk of getting infected.
