COVID-19 Response

Melfort Dental Group only accepting emergency patients during COVID-19 pandemic

Mar 19, 2020 | 3:00 PM

With COVID-19 concerns continuing to rise, businesses in the northeast are limiting services to consumers.

The Melfort Dental Group is the most recent business to do so as they have announced they are suspending non-urgent and routine services until further notice.

Emergency patients will still be accepted during the suspension. Emergency patients include pain, infections, swelling, excessive bleeding and trauma to the face.

The hygiene staff will not be in the office during this time and there will only be one dentist around for emergency procedures.

Those who had appointments scheduled will be contacted over the next few days to reschedule.
