Avoid cross-contamination! Try to keep your toothbrush separate from others in the same holder to prevent the spread of germs.

Hello, With the new stay at home order being put in place at 11:59pm on December 10th for the Greater Sacramento area, we wanted to give our patients an update on our current office protocols. Our office will remain open. Healthcare is an essential component to staying healthy during this pandemic and oral healthcare is one of these essential components. Our office will continue to provide access to care to serve our patients preventative, restorative, and emergency dental... needs. The saftey of our staff and patients has always been of utmost importance to us and we will continue to provide care in a safe environment. Per the California Dental Association's recommendations, we will continue to take precautions when caring for our patients such as COVID screenings upon arrival and mask/face covering requirements for every person entering the building. As always, if you are expereince any COVID symptoms (cough, fever, reduction in smell or taste, etc) or if you come in contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19 in the past fourteen days, we kindly ask that you reschedule your appointment out of safety of our staff and others. We are so blessed to be able to provide care to our patients and look forward to seeing all of you! Best Regards, Sidney D. Kelly, Jacob D. Kelly & Staff See more
