A very Happy Thanksgiving to my patients, family, friends, and dedicated staff! This year has undoubtedly been a very challenging one for so many who are struggling to overcome illnesses, experiencing financial distress as a result of the pandemic, tackling the challenges of remote learning for their young ones and so many other obstacles. I am grateful to each and every one of you for allowing me to be part of your lives and wish each and every one of you good health and continued strength.

Dear patients, We hope this letter finds you and your family in good health. Our community has been through a lot over the last few months, and all of us are looking forward to resuming our normal habits and routines. While many things have changed, one thing has remained the same: our commitment to your safety. Infection control has always been a top priority for our practice and you may have seen this during your visits to our office. Our infection control processes are mad...e so that when you receive care, it’s both safe and comfortable. We want to tell you about the infection control procedures we follow in our practice to keep patients and staff safe. Our office follows infection control recommendations made by the American Dental Association (ADA), the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). We follow the activities of these agencies so that we are up-to-date on any new rulings or guidance that may be issued. You may see some changes when it is time for your next appointment. We made these changes to help protect our patients and staff. For example: Our office will communicate with you beforehand to ask some screening questions. You’ll be asked those same questions again when you are in the office. We have hand sanitizer that we will ask you to use when you enter the office. You will also find some in the reception area and other places in the office for you to use as needed. You may see that our waiting room will no longer offer magazines, children’s toys and so forth, since those items are difficult to clean and disinfect. Appointments will be managed to allow for social distancing between patients. That might mean that you’re offered fewer options for scheduling your appointment. We will do our best to allow greater time between patients to reduce waiting times for you, as well as to reduce the number of patients in the reception area at any one time. We look forward to seeing you again and are happy to answer any questions you may have about the steps we take to keep you, and every patient, safe in our practice. To make an appointment, please call our office at (818)240-3700. Thank you for being our patient. We value your trust and loyalty and look forward to welcoming back our patients, neighbors and friends. Sincerely, Dr. Kabakian See more

Dear patients. Yesterday the California Dental Association, in an effort to contain the Coronavirus, issued a decision asking dentists to ONLY provide emergency dental treatment for their patients for the next 2 weeks and to refrain from performing all other procedures, exams, cleanings, fillings, crowns. All non-emergency patients were therefore contacted to reschedule their appointment. Rest assured all emergencies will be addressed should they arise and if you call the of...fice at (818)240-3700, a recorded message will advise how to get a hold of us in case of such an emergency. While these are trying times, rest assured that my patients' safety is of first priority and I will keep you informed of new developments as they become available. In the meantime, stay safe and take care of yourselves. !https://www.cda.org//News-and/COVID-19-Coronavirus-Updates See more
