    Frequently Asked Questions

    Is it safe for me to come to your office?

    Hudec Dental is following the guidelines, mandates, and recommendations for the governing bodies of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), The American Dental Association (ADA), and the Ohio Dental Association (ODA). Currently, Hudec Dental is meeting and/or exceeding all governing bodies stipulations on cleanliness and sterilization. In addition, all team members and all patients are screened daily to ensure that every individual entering the office does not exhibit any of the symptoms related to COVID-19.

    Will my visit be any different than normal?

    In response to the COVID-19 Pandemic, Hudec Dental is taking extra steps to protect the health and well being of our patients and team members alike. All patients will be immediately asked to sanitize their hands upon entering the office. At check-in, each patient will be asked a series of screening questions. If any of the screening questions are not answered appropriately, then the appointment will be rescheduled.

    Will I need to wear a mask or any special Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)?

    Yes, in accordance with Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine’s newest legislation, masks are required in any indoor location that is not a residence. All patients and staff will have to wear a mask while in a Hudec Dental office. We recommend all patients wear a mask when visiting our offices.

    What additional cleaning and/or sterilization methods is Hudec Dental adopting?

    Hudec Dental has always prioritized the best sterilization and cleaning methods of our equipment, instruments, and materials. Prior to the COVID-19 Pandemic, Hudec Dental was already meeting and exceeding all OHSHA, CDC, ADA, and ODA sterilization and cleaning requirements during this COVID-19 Pandemic. We are continuing our sterilization and cleaning processes with additional, non-required, intermittent sterilization of all surfaces, equipment, and materials.
