At this time, Dr. Presley-Nelson and Dr. Fung plan to remain open unless the San Francisco Public Health Department mandates otherwise. COVID-19 surges occur regionally and each area needs to react according to their own situation.
San Francisco dental offices were cleared to open in mid June 2020 and there was no surge related to that opening. No cases have been linked to a dental office thus far.
We screen patients carefully to minimize the risk of an infected person being present in the office. We have installed six large air filters all over the office, to turn the air over five times an hour, and kill viruses. We have installed intra-oral suction shields to keep aerosol at a minimum. We are wearing protective gear. We are screening ourselves daily. At this time, we plan to continue serving you. We will issue a new update should that become necessary. We care about your over-all health and your oral health.
