Access Dental Care Limits Services

April 1, 2020
On March 18, 2020, the American Dental Association (ADA) issued guidance to Dental Practices across the United States, in response to the Covid-19 outbreak.  The ADA guidance suggests Dentists see patients only with urgent or emergent (emergency) dental issues.  The ADA guidance instructs Dentists to postpone all routine hygiene and non-emergency care.  

ACCESS Family Care established a Team to review this guidance and the best interest of our customers.  This review led to the very difficult decision to suspend all elective, routine hygiene, and non-emergency dental procedures until the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, ADA, and / or other regulatory bodies indicate it is responsible to reschedule patients.  This suspension of care was effective March 23, 2020. We sincerely apologize to our customers as we know this will be a major inconvenience and gap in healthcare.  

ACCESS Family Care is hopeful the ADA guidance, pandemic conditions, and economic climate quickly recover.  We are hopeful to recall as many or all of our laid off Team, as soon as possible.

We will maintain a small Dental Team, at each of our Dental Clinics, to see urgent and emergent (emergency) patients, those with pain and swelling.  Patients may email info@accessfamilycare.org, or visit our website at www.accessfamilycare.org to request an emergency appointment.
